What Does The Blood Test With WBC Count 4.58 Indicate?

Hi I am 23 years old and had blood test done a few days ago. my white blood cell count is 4.58 but my Neutrophils Abs count is 1.53 and on my test is a comment saying Neutropenia! My cholesterop total 5.4 and my gamma GT is 77. But my docter says everything is fine but I dont believe that at all. I read articles about low blood counts indicating seriuos illnesses including HIV and it scared me. Please can you give me some clarity on the above results. Angelique

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You have low normal wbc count with low neutrophil count. You may have some viral infection. Its very common in viral infection. Your ggt and cholesterol is normal. No need to worry dear. No any treatment is required. If you have exposed to unprotected sex or infective blood then only think of hiv. Your blood test doesn't suggest hiv.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic.
Wish you a very good health.
