A member asked:
Can sinusitis and rash and slightly elevated wbc mean leukemia?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not likely: An elevated WBC usually just means that your body is under stress and is expected with a sinus infection. A rash can be from any number of things (including medicines, stress, and viruses) but is rarely a sign of any cancer. Sinus infections and rashes are both much more common than cancers.
