I have heard that Acidophilus (like in yogurt) is good for digestive health as well as yeast infections, but can taking it in a pill form help as much as drinking acidophilus milk? or eating yogurt (which I hate)?

I have had this for the past few days and its buggin me-I have had an awful sore throat that comes and goes(do ya know what i mean? sometimes its really bad and sometimes i barely notice it), headaches, ichy throat and mouth(really itchy), a bad productive cough, and weirdest of all some dark red dots on the roof of my mouth. Sometimes I lose my voice for a while.
I feel GREAT-otherwise-I have energy and I am happy its just a wierd inconvincence. I don't "feel" sick I just have these symtoms.

Exactly how effective is it (more or less than condoms, percentage, etc), and is it true that it decreases sexual desire?

I've noticed this problem in many people. They take iron pills and all of a sudden they want to eat more often. Is this true? If so, why?

My husband was recently diagnosed with CMML, due to a bone marrow test.(he will be 74 in December). His white cell count was 16000th and went up to 18000th. last test was 16700th.He was told as the result of last test that was normal, but his primary Dr. was concerned when it elevated to 16000th's. What is a normal range?
He is being treated for low platelets. 1 - 1 1/2 years ago they showed up at about 45 (thousandths)...since then he has given up smoking & drinking and regular coffee. The platelet count (last tested)was about 65.
He has none of the symptoms related to CMML (weakness..shortness of breath..anemia..bleeding..bruising..recurrent infections..enlarged spleen)and his hematoligist doesn't seem to be to concerned about it. Saw him last month and he doesn't want to see him for another 3 months.
Hematoligist says platelets can be added to do this procedure,and would probably be an over night stay in the hospital.
Back to original question.What is normal range for White Blood Cells?
