WBC count keeps getting lower and lower

I would not speculate very much as to why your WBC is dropping. Of course it is a common thing to see WBC drop for a person dealing with any of a number of diseases or treatments for those diseases. However, from reading your query it doesn't sound like you are aware of any thing. What was the occasion that you received a Blood Count test in the first place? If you are not seeing an Oncologist then I would suggest that you do so rather quickly. If you are indeed seeing one and he/she doesn't see any reason for the drop, then I suggest that you get a second opinion. Much better to find the cause sooner rather than later. Best of luck to you.

Thank you for your reply.
I have osteoporosis and that in and on itself requires me to receive a blood count and other lab tests pretty often. And I would do a blood count every 2-3 months regardless as a part of a basic health and wellness check.

I'm not seeing an oncologist or hematologist because I haven't had a reason for that until now.
I'm not going to lie, but your comment scared me a little bit 🙁

Best regards

My.WBC every year for the last 10 years have gotten lower and lower and lower and no one’s addressed it. I took my lab work yesterday and now it’s 0.0. I don’t even register anymore. And I just called in and I asked for my doctor that I’m going to see next week my primary care to do a cultured urine test because I have light pink still on my underwear that I’ve had for 10 years off and on and he told the nurse to tell me no that he would talk to me about it next week. We are only as good as the doctors are.
