A member asked:
I have been looking all over for an answer to this question if my white blood cell count is going down what does it mean 3.9 - 3.6?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Any symptoms?: All laboratory results need to be interpreted in the clinical context and the doctor who ordered the tests is usually in the best position to do that. Talk to the doctor who ordered the tests. Having said that, why was the test done? It may be your normal. Unless you develop symptoms, get it tested again in 6 months or so.
