Hello I am wondering if anyone else out there has the same issue. When having blood work done it shows that I have a high white blood cell count. My PCP is worried and tells me more blood work and even stool sample and testing are needed. On the other hand my Rhumey says it's so to speak normal with Lupus sufferers that white blood cell counts are higher then normal. My white blood cell count is always elevated and the last few blood tests over the last 4 to 5 months they are highly elevated.
To me blood work for Lupus is so confusing.
I had a high wbc for the longest amd got put on antibiotics for a good minute but it eventually went down.
My wbc usually runs low. 2.8. I have not heard if low or high is common with lupus??
Thank you for your comment. This makes alot more sense to me.
