Atul,
I know that its alarming to have your wbc go down - are they back up to normal? Do you know what % were lymphocytes - those are the cells important in virus infections?

Zinc lozenges are said to be good when you get a cold to help stimulate immune function and the wbc important to fighting off viruses. If you take too much zinc, as supplements, you can inhibit immune cells. Make sure you're not taking too many supplements - like even echinacea...

Foods - make sure you;re getting enought vitamin B12 - not sure from your message if you're a vegetarian or not.

Just a few ideas. and good luck
Sondy
