Wbc 17.8 and neutrophils 16.3 could this be leukemia?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not necessary: Not necessary, leukocytosis is common and could occur in the setting of infection. WBC of 17.8 with elevated neutrophils (ANC of 16.3) could be seen in bladder infections, pneumonia, viral infections, etc. It would be helpful to provide us with your Hemoglobin and Hematocrit levels to see if you are anemic, also what is your platelet levels as these numbers could help us a lot in the diagnosis.
