I’m 57 and post menopause by a few years. I had a blood test on 13th October and my white cell count was 1.6.
The last time my blood was tested was 18 months ago and it was 3.5.
I’ve had a full blood test repeated over a week ago and it’s come back again as 1.6. Had phone call with Dr - she says it needs keeping an eye on and wants another test 1st week of Jan and that too include B12 & folate check too. She’s doesn’t think it’s anything too worrying but it needs keeping a check on.
I haven’t been unwell or anything this past year. Have had my covid & flu jabs all fine etc. I feel quite fit and well. I’m busy and exercise several times a week. Dr did say previously when discussing my very first blood test that the test showed my body was having to work hard to produce Thyroxine and I’ve got to have that tested again in 6 months.
Could any of this be linked? Could it be linked to post menopause?
Apparently if it goes as low as 1 I will be referred to Haematology. Just a bit worried really. Xx
