Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You have hodgkin's lymphoma and you are takin treatment with chemotherapy. Low total count is very common while on chemotherapy. It causes suppression of all cells. Granulocytes stimulating factors increase your total wbc count. Don't worry about your wbc count. It is common problem.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
