Everything always comes back normal. I've never had NK cells tested, but my cytokines were a little low..I think I might have been slightly TH2 dominant. Interestingly I had an appendicitis a few months ago and my surgeon said my initial labs came back and it looked like my immune system wasn't working...I was in a bad state. But 2nd round of labs came back fine I suppose because he never mentioned it again..

This all started 13 years ago when I got sick (tons of cold sores, strep real bad, etc.). Never been the same since.

All my hormones and lifestyle factors are on point now. Its been a long road. But over the past few months I've needed 3-10grams of Lysine to keep cold sores away. Its been bad.
