I previously experienced a continuously low lymphocyte count as a kid when I suffered from swollen lymph glands locoated in the neck, armpit & groin. These are meant to filter the lymphatic fluid and store special cells that can trap cancer cells and bacteria.
A low lymphocyte count can be down to the bodies inadequacy to produce a sufficient number or they are destroyed through varying illnesses// medications//treatments. They are critical for the body's immune response and are principal sites where many immune reactions are initiated.
Your lymphocyte result is at present elevated and during a Hashimotos attack, lymphocytes will infiltrate the thyroid gland where destruction slowly takes place, eventually depleting thyroid hormone.
If you have a thyroid issue, post any recent results complete with ranges (numbers in brackets) and members will comment. Hashimotos Auto Immune Disease is determined by the presence of thyroid antibodies TPOAb and//or TGAb.
