A member asked:
Is a wbc count of 16.6 something you would see in ana neg lupus nephritis? i am not convinced i have the right diagnosis.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe: The possible causes of an elevated WBC count are huge. I would not use the WBC count to rule-in, or rule-out that diagnosis.
