Understanding Your Immune Health: CD3 Count Analysis
When your body feels constantly under attack from infections, fatigue, or unexplained symptoms, it’s natural to worry about your immune system’s strength. The Immune Deficiency Panel 3 CD3 Count Test provides the clarity you need to understand your body’s defence mechanisms and take control of your health journey.
What Does This Test Measure?
This specialised test evaluates your CD3 T-cells, which are the command centre of your immune system. Think of CD3 cells as the generals that coordinate your body’s defence against infections, viruses, and other health threats. By measuring both the percentage and absolute count of these crucial cells, we gain valuable insights into how effectively your immune system can protect you.
Using advanced flow cytometry technology, the same method trusted by leading hospitals worldwide, we provide precise measurements that help your doctor understand your immune function at a cellular level.
Who Should Consider This Test?
If you experience any of these concerning symptoms, this test could provide important answers:
- Frequent or severe infections that don’t seem to resolve normally
- Unexplained fatigue that persists despite adequate rest
- Slow healing of wounds or frequent skin infections
- Recurrent respiratory infections or pneumonia
- Family history of immune disorders or autoimmune conditions
- Unexplained weight loss or persistent fever
- Multiple courses of antibiotics with limited improvement
Many South Africans struggle with these symptoms without understanding the underlying immune system involvement. Early detection can make a significant difference in treatment outcomes.
Why This Test Matters for Your Health
Understanding your CD3 count provides several crucial health benefits:
- Early Detection: Identify immune deficiencies before they lead to serious complications
- Personalised Treatment: Help your doctor create targeted treatment plans based on your specific immune profile
- Peace of Mind: Either rule out immune disorders or get early intervention when needed
