What Can I Do To Increase WBC Count?
I have had a low WBC and Neutrophil counts since radiation therapy in Feb. 09. I had some blood work done last week and my WBC is 2.6 and my Neutrophil count is 1.0. I can only assume the radiation therapy (for breast cancer) caused this. What do you think and is there anything that I can do to raise these levels?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern for your health I would like to say you that because of the radiation therapy such blood picture is common and this would come around as soon as the effect of radiation eliminate from the blood, otherwise there is no way to increase the WBC, I hope this information helps you, take care and have a nice day.
