Hi Meri T.

My white cells average around 1.5 except when I'm sick, when they increase temporarily. My red cell levels are similar to yours. I live a very normal life, travelling on planes, trains, etc. (My platelets have been normal most of the time since I started supplementing with Vitamin D3). As long as your blasts aren't increasing, you may be OK to go on the trip.

When you are in groups of people be extra careful with hygiene - wearing a mask can help prevent infections.
