If your white blood cell count was low on your blood screening, there are a full range of possibilities. Are you sick? Then that is why. If you are fighting illness, and not being successful (getting sicker) then your white cell count would be low. If you have a low white blood cell count even when you get a cold or the flu or some other less severe sickness, and you start to get better, then it is possible that you have HIV. HIV results in the lowering of white blood cells. There are also certain medications that lower the white blood cell count. If you want more help, message me!
