So further to my earlier thread. Had another set of blood tests taken before Christmas. Surgery phoned today with the results and said my 'infection fighting' (white) blood cell count was slightly low.
Doc phoning me next week to discuss.
Does anyone know whether this could be as a result of GS?
Thanks.

Hello, alan26937. White blood cells should be high in order to fight infection. I suggest you to take blood tests on copper, vitamins b9, b12. From my experience low copper lead to low white blood cells and neutrophils counts. Did you eat food with high vitamin C content 1-2 weeks before your blood test? Vit C can lower copper. And yes, it can be result of gilbert syndrome if you have issues with detoxification because body need more copper in order to detoxify itself and copper absorption is inhibited if you have gut issues
