I have just received my CBC report. I would like to know which specific counts or parameters in the CBC indicate a weakened immune system, as there are many values listed and I am unsure which ones are important.

Low WBC count (especially neutrophils and lymphocytes) may indicate weak immunity. If any counts are significantly low, follow up with a doctor is needed.
