Was: Mild neutropenia with dmsa Now: Neutrophils??

[Guest guest]

Some of you here understand WBC readings?? My Dr.s haven't been able to explain

it to me and I've been very frustrated about it.

I know this is OT, yet the discussion may lead to help for those dealing with

viral issues.

I've had low WBC ever since I got mono about 1991. I had the low grade fever

with the mono until about 4 yrs ago. I was sent to the Head of Infectious

Disease at Ohio State when it hit 2.6

He said my WBC readings were like someone with advanced Aids, that he'd never

seen anything like it even in early Aids. Nonetheless, there was nothing he

could do for me.

I had BC last year (no node involvement, did not take chemo or radiation, but

had a double mastectomy). I have seen my Oncologist (though I think it's pretty

pointless to anymore. She's very nice but doesn't know anything beyond the

triple-play for cancer)and she does my CBC.

Last WBC reading through her was 3.3 (It is always about here) RBCs are fine,

but all the rest are low: EOS, Lymphs, Monos, Basophils Abs, Eosinophils Abs,

Lymphocytes Abs, Monocytes Abs, and the one they go by to see if you'd make it

through chemo (which I won't take, & they go by a range of 2.0 to 11.0),is 2.2,

which to my mind, shows me I wouldn't even be a good candidate for it anyhow.

The one High reading in the whole WBC panel is Neutrophils at 68.4, though when

it's all taken together, in the Neutrophils Abs, it's still pathetically low.

I had another Dr. give me the mono test lately and my readings are identical to

what they were when I was in the full-blown mono, except the IGG for Epstein

Barr has gone from 4.67 to 4.73, with a range saying it should be under .91

Until the last two years, I had a poor, high sugar diet. Now my diet is whole

foods, no processed, no white flour or sugar, lots of raw, and LOTS of

supplements. I take Beta Glucan, all the ones for chelation (had amalgams out

in August and have been doing AC with my two dds), have added what Dana

recommends for Viral protocol, and many more recommended for cancer, the immune

system, & on.

My sense is that the low WBC is not allowing the mono to leave and the mono is

not allowing the WBC to raise. So, I'm wanting to pick the brains of you brains

out there who might have insight into how to get free of this vicious cycle.

I do plan on seeing a homeopath next month.

Thank you to anyone who can shed any light on all this and if there's any hope

of helping such a long, deep viral/immune system problem.
