A member asked:

Doc. told me i have immature blood cells now she is saying my white cell count is still very elevated & is sending me to hematologist. whats going on?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not sure: Sounds like you have elevated white blood count. Must be staying elevated if you are going to hematology. Need to find out why the white blood cells remain elevated the hematologist will look at the bone marrow. It is possible to have elevated wbc for no known reason so just wait to see what he says
