Thanks for contacting HCM. dear patient please take calcium and vit d supplements to correct vit d deficiency along with diet rich in vit d like milk and milk products, fish and fish liver oils etc, along with exposure to sun for atleast 15 minutes a day, as low vit d levels can lead to low wbc counts although as yet you do not have a cause to worry as your wbc levels are within the normal range. There is nothing really much wrong with your body so just relax and chill. Regards
