I took a blood test as part of a physical in early November. My white blood count came back low at 3.9. My doctor suggested I take a second test. I took the second test about 6 weeks later, but during the peak of a cold. The result came back the second time at 8.4. I’m wondering if this is accurate, or if the cold could have skewed the number? Thanks.
