In case that this is related to your page counter problem: due to the asynchronic page building of tex, the page counter is often not reliable in the text body.

You can access the value of a counter for arithmetic or other situations where LaTeX expects a number with value{<countername>}
, so
addtocounter{counterB}{value{counterA}}
should be what you are looking for.
You would use the<countername>
to print (a representation of) the value.
thecounterB
Gives
5
in the example.
In rare situations or when you define the<countername>
you may have to use
arabic{<countername>}
roman{<countername>}
Roman{<countername>}
alph{<countername>}
Alph{<countername>}
to force a particular printed representation.
