Melody,
My Jen's WBC numbers are often low. (Her WBC climbed last week to 3.01)
It doesn't seem to phase her at all. When her RBC got pretty low (HCT
16.3)she seemed more tired, but not in bad spirits.
However, low WBCs usually correspond with chemo treatments. Maybe the
chemo itself is making Emma queasy or has caused a sore in her mucosa
somewhere that is causing her not to feel her best.
I would keep an eye out for fever/signs of infection.
Hope it is just a passing thing with Emma.
