Cheryl...Mine have never been that low, but are trending downward. It's been a long slow process with the platelets being low for about 18 years now and steadily getting lower. The WBC's started about 5 years ago. It has been just in the last four months that they have suddenly gone into the new ranges and lingering.
I find it interesting you mentioned taking Vitamin D3 as my counts there have also gone down in the last four months and have continued to go lower so I am starting on supplements. They have always been good. I've been out of the sun due to surgery last August and of course the weather.
I'm starting with 400 IU as I don't want to take too much and get kidney stones. I've had those. Upping my time outside, upping my dairy intake, and will up the doses of D3 as I see how I do with it. I will not mega dose right off the bat as that does not always work well for me. Found out the hard way with Vitamin E.
