Last week I wrote a post asking about the significance of low leukocytes (and high eosinophils) on Pegasys. Thank you to those of you who answered. I must admit I was pretty worried. Turns out I was looking at the wrong column on the results. My haemo very kindly explained that haematologists never usually worry about the percentages of the different blood cells if the absolute count is normal. He explained the absolute value of the leukocytes being low as due to the test being done fasting. Anyway long story short I was worrying about nothing.
