Hi, dear.
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. Your wbc count is slightly low. You have flu like symptoms do its quite common. Viral infection is the common cause of low wbc count. so don't worry. Just be relaxed. Take treatment according to your doctor's advice. It will come back to normal within few days.
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.
