 Hi and thanks for posting. If your CD4 percentage didn't change, the difference in absolute count is likely due to normal fluctuations in your total white blood cell count. For a "typical case", a CD4 percentage of 30 should equate to an absolute count of around 400 (or 15% = 200 cells, and so on)-- exactly what your later test reveals. Hope that helps. BY | ||||||||
