Nelie, I am not sure if WBC may be permanently low after getting chemo, it may or may not. I received 4 rounds of cisplatin and my WBC was only below normal for several months and after that it gradually rose to the normal level and remained stable for these years.You are only 3 months out of treatment and it is still very likely that the WBC will increase. Our immune system is definitely affected and so we need to do our best to strenghthen it by eating nutritious food, exercising regularly and thinking in a positive manner.For may case, it won't take extra longer time to recover if I get a cold but if the cold goes along with a sore throat, I will be extra cautious and will rush to the ENT asap.
