[QUOTE="Alexandra100, post: 1878607, member: 429870"] My neutrophils are as often as not low enough to be marked as "abnormal". My GP discussed this with me and said that some people just do have low neutrophils without it causing them any problems. This is particularly the case with certain ethnicities (not mine). Some of the meds I am taking could be causing this problem. As there is no alternative remedy I am keen to go on taking them, so I am not pressing for action. I don't like the idea that my immune system is compromised, but at 76 and with multiple health problems, I just accept that things are not going to be perfect. I used to take beetroot juice daily and I think it may have helped my neutrophils, but obviously it won't have been helping my bg. My blood test in June showed low neutrophils yet again, but oddly the one I have just had shows them as being quite respectable. [/QUOTE]
