Hi all!
I have been diabetic for a little while now and am on the Victoza injection once a day. Yes, I am overweight but I have been losing weight since being on the injection. I recently had my bloods checked and the results came back abnormal with the white blood cell count and anti-inflammatory marker slightly raised. I saw the doctor about this and he said its nothing to worry about and is happening because of my weight. I have never had these results show up before when I've had my bloods done and weigh less than when they were last done! Should I get a second opinion? Does anyone else have this trouble? I've been experiencing a lot of pain in my legs and knees, he says this is also due to my weight and lack of exercise, yet I walk my dog twice a day.
 
Hi
Didn't want to ignore your post! I am also on Victoza but have not had any bloods done yet so cannot comment on your results. What I would say though, is if you are worried or unhappy then see if you can speak to another GP in the practice or a diabetic nurse and ask them to clarify the results and what they mean. Hope you get some answers
