AimeeM Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 What would cause this? He's been sick a lot more this last year (more than normal) - could that be causing a low white blood cell count? I looked it up, but I'm not finding much. When I told my husband, he was concerned but wouldn't really elaborate, just went to check on Nico (abnormal for him; he has a background in medicine and not much fazes him). Just pondering a call I received from our pediatrician, following Nico's 4 year old well check blood work. They want to see us back to test again in a few weeks.

Tammyla Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 I don't have anything, but hope everything is just fine at the check. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JudoMom Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 Viruses can cause it to be low. Try not to worry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AimeeM Posted May 24, 2013 Author Share Posted May 24, 2013 Viruses can cause it to be low. Try not to worry. That would make sense. He's had fevers more frequently, he currently has a cough, and he had a nasty bout with pneumonia a few months ago. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
