Is it possible to recognize hiv from cbc test?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not really: Although HIV has its effects on white blood cells, there would not be specific findings in the CBC test to diagnose it. The virus is much too small to be seen. However if you or your doctor are concerned about hiv, blood could be specifically sent for an HIV test.
