Currently on Humira and 6 mp. I understand I'm on immune suppressant drugs. My white blood count is 4.5 and I guess I'm a little nervous because 5 months ago I had sex with a woman and I think the condom came off. Maybe I'm fretting over nothing but when I heard my white blood count was 4.5 I got nervous.

Anyone know whats an average white blood count for someone on Humira/6mp? thanks

That is the bottom end of average. A healthy WBC is between 4.5 and 10. Higher than that is an infection. Super high is like 22, which is cancer high.

I also take 6MP. I just look at my last CBC and my white blood cell count was. 4.2. At that lab, anything below 4.8 is considered low. My doctors are worried about it though.
