Can Vitamin Supplement Help In Increasing WBC Count?

I went to a medical center to be tested for Lyme disease and they did blood work, they called me and said it wasn't Lyme disease, my sugar is fine, liver and kidneys are fine, the only thing that they found is my white blood cells are low. But when I asked what to do to raise the white blood cells, I wasn't given any answers, only told that I was over doing it and needed to rest. And then if I didn't feel good in two weeks to go back for more blood work. I don't understand what is going on, can you please tell me what is going on. Is there any vitamins that can help me, is it something in my diet, my only systems were feeling really drained, all the time didn't matter what energy drink I tried nothing worked. And everything hurts, every muscle every joint, my head hurt, everything. What can you tell me from the information I just gave you

Hello and welcome to ask a doctor service. I reviewed your query and here is my answer.
Do you have fever? How much is your platelet and HEMOGLOBIN level? Low wbc count may be due to drugs like steroids or other immunosupressant drugs or it could be due to infections like hiv, other viruses or typhoid. For which there will be needed a proper history and complete examination along with proper investigations to find out the cause. But if there is no cause found, then you can use boosters like G-CSF drigs to boost your wbc production.
Hope i answered your query. Feel free to ask if i can help you further. Thanks.
