Low Lymphocytes
Hi everyone
It's been awhile - things are still going great :)
Just had my first blood tests - and it came back with low lymphocytes.
Does anyone have any insight on what may have caused this?
I've been googling - but I don't really see a whole lot associated with the surgery - I hope it's not as bad as what I have been reading.

Thanks
Most things I read where due to auto immune disorders and cancer - I didn't see much in way of nutrition or any link to Bariatric surgery.
I hope that is the case - and it is just a matter of tweaking my routine.

Glad to see you back!
I don't know much about lymphocytes, but I am hoping the outcome is as simple as nutrition

Hello,
I had the same thing and found that knowledge - especially a little enhanced by Google, is often a dangerous thing. Mine was of no concern and they went back to the normal range quickly. When you go on the LifeLab website to read your own results, it can cause useless worry. The best thing to do is to call your G.P. for his or her opinion. Right now, no worries.
Orientation: June 29th, 2016, Surgery March 22, 2017. Pre-surgery: 16 lbs, (Size 2x, 18/20), M1: 19 lbs. (Size 1x, 16/18), M2: 13 lbs. (Size 16, XL) M3: 10 lbs. (Size 14/16, large). M4: 6 lbs. (Size 14, large/medium). M5: 10 lbs. (Size 14, solid medium - lol), M6: 9 lbs. (Size 12, medium). M7: 8 lbs. (Size 10/12 and small/medium). M8: 7 lbs. (Size 10 and small/medium). M9: 2 lbs. (Size 8/10 - small/medium). Lost 100 lbs by Month 9! M10: 5 lbs. M11: 4 lbs. One year: 6 lbs. Total 111 lbs. lost!
thank you - that is what I will do - wait for them to call me - I am sure it's nothing - just never heard anyone talk about it on here - so wondered what it might be
