Patient's question:
Brother usually has poor health and often catches colds and fevers. Recently, he has had a high fever that hasn't subsided for a long time, and taking medicine hasn't helped. He went to the hospital for a urine test, which showed high levels of white blood cells and red blood cells.Hello, how high are white blood cell counts generally in leukemia?
Doctor's answer:
A high white blood cell count does not necessarily indicate leukemia. Many common acute bacterial infections can also lead to a decrease in white blood cells. Additionally, severe tissue damage, heavy bleeding, and poisoning are all possible causes of a low white blood cell count. Leukemia cells lose their ability to further divide and mature, and they become stuck at various stages of cell development. A bone marrow aspiration is required for diagnosis. Dietary principles: Eat more vegetables and fruits rich in vitamins, and reduce the intake of grains.
