Question

4 year old with platelet of 600,000 Crp 4.7 amylase 133 wbc 13.2 and monocytes high ?

Answer 1

Inflammation: It is a reactive process as a result of infection or inflammation. Since it fluctuates up or down this is normal and okay. You may have some underlining inflammatory process or autoimmune disorder.

Answer 2

Not totally sure: Those are high WBC values for a healthy young woman. You don't mention if you have any other health problems or symptoms that might provide a clue. You also don't mention what type(s) of wbcs are elevated; this could also provide a clue as to the cause. Someone must be ordering these blood tests; what are they telling you? If you're not satisfied with the answer, request a second opinion.
