Question 2

Usually bacterial: It's usually a bacterial illness that causes the symptoms you describe. But this can include anything form sinus infections, tonsillitis, ear infections, pneumonia, infection in the blood, urinary tract infections, appendicitis, meningitis, skin abcesses... The list goes on and on. You need a thorough assessment of associated symptoms and a physical exam to try and pinpoint your condition.

Question 3

Many things: You are not providing adequate information with which to even make an intelligent guess.  Bacterial infections are possible, but basically this child should be seen by a doctor and discuss the possibilities with the person seeing the baby.

Question 4

high white blood cell count green poop low grade fever and chills with headache flu negative strep negative listeria ??

Accepted Answer

If you have green: poop and fever, then look inside the belly for cause.  You may need a CT, or stool culture, or GI workup.  If you have headache with fever, perhaps you need to look for meningitis.  In other words, have your doctor keep looking for a cause, those tests you listed are only the beginning.  Focus on your symptoms and start there.  Good luck.

Question 5

my husband has colon cancer, his tumor and section of colon were removed yesterday. he has an elevated white blood cell count but no fever. problem?

Accepted Answer

See below: All laboratory results need to be interpreted in the clinical context and the doctor who ordered the tests is usually in the best position to do that. Having said that, the elevated white cell count is likely a normal reaction to the trauma of surgery. If he has fever, discharge from the surgical site, pain at the surgical site, then you should consult your doctor promptly.

Question 6

Accepted Answer

Question 7

last two days fever but not know check blood test test result is white blood cell count high neutrophils high and lymphocytes low and urine albu pos?

Accepted Answer

Seems OK.: As long as you feel fine or are getting better these lab tests don't indicate much. Depending upon where you grew up and live in India these symptoms could represent serious disease, but the labs don't show anything specific. The way you feel should guide whether you need further testing.

Question 8

why would a dr. order a bone marrow test for a 9 month old with low white blood cell count and persistent high fever?

Accepted Answer

Need more info: Is it just the white count, and is it always low? If so, I'd be worried about a defect in white cell production or increased white cell destruction. If it were the white count and red count, and/or platelet count, I would be worried that there was something in the bone marrow keeping it from working well, such as leukemia. I'd want more information. Has a blood slide been examined by a specialist?

Question 9

10 mo baby has white blood cell count 23, 000.no ear infection or signs  infection. what are the possibilities? (he is not immunized) high fever of 104

Accepted Answer

Sad situation: An unimmunized kid with a 104 temperature may have something simple like a virus. S/he may also have a vaccine preventable illness like hemophilus meningitis or blood poisoning.I would take the child to be evaluated and be sure to inform the doc of the lack of vaccines. They can proceed with a more thorough evaluation understanding  the extra possibilities.
