5 after a blood test taken 5 days later, just enough to
avoid a dosage reduction in my interferon after stopping the
trial drug. The goal, from what I understand, is to keep those lymphocytes above .2 and anything from .5 and above avoids dosage adjustments. We went to blood tests two weeks later instead of one week later as a result, I'm thinking because it was expected the upswing would continue. Two weeks later, my lymphocyte count is back down to .3 again.
