Odd bloodwork results

Ok guys so over the past 2 years I have been on trt and have ran a few cycles here and there. Nothing crazy, just things like bumping the test from 200 to 400mg or running a 30 day bottle of epistane. This year has been the biggest as I ran EQ anavar and when i stopped the EQ i have upped my test to 900mg until this September. Here's the issue, throughout the 2 years I get routine bloodwork here and there and I have noticed a trend of low lymphocytes. Say the range is like 20-40 I'll be like 17, 15, and the last one I took I was 12. I'm also on the most test I've ever used. I donate blood so I know I don't have AIDS or any other weird diseases. My question is, does jacking up your test levels mess with your lymphocytes/immune health causing stuff like this? Anybody else has similar cbc blood work?
 
Someone with experience in this would have to chime in, but I thought this was a pretty normal response to long duration steroid cycles. (Not that it's good to have a low number.)

Frequent blood donation and larger doses could amplify it? Best I got.

Whites, reds, and hemocrit didn't trend down too?
 
Whites were slightly high but nothing crazy. Hematocit and reds are normal from blood donations. I'm really hoping that being on cycle is what causes this so I don't have reason to worry
 
What are the units? How often have u had it done? Overall I'd say ur fine. Now if it were below 1 or greater than 50 I'd get a little worried. We're u sick during the past results? Leukopoeisis especially lymphopoeisis is highly controlled process so don't be worried if test doesn't effect the value.
 
How was the rest of your blood work? Low lymphocyte counts in relation to other labs stimulate the investigation of lymphoma.
 
The rest was pretty normal. It's just my lymphocytes are always running a bit low. For two years now it's been like this
 
Punkrocker,

Some people have low lymphocytes. The doctor will not be able to tell you why but some people have a low base. I am in the same boat. Blood work always shows low lymphocytes. I had to go to a hematologist and have every test under the sun (looking for cancer). MRI, sonogram all found nothing. My mom has the same thing. Then one year I went for my annual checkup and my lymphocytes were back in the normal range. I am sure next test they will be low again. Wouldnt hurt to go see doctor about it. They will most likely just do a bunch of bloods looking for other markers.
