Hi,I am Dr. Robert Galamaga (Hematologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Are The Causes And Effects Of High WBC And Low RBC Count?
Hi, I am a 45 yo white female who for a year now has had issues with my CBC (elevated white count, lymphocytes, platelets, and low RBC). I ve had recurrent pneumonia that clears with long courses of antibiotics but white count still never goes into normal range. I have what I am calling sores in my throat that are almost ulcer like, that I m getting ready to see an ENT for. I have been seeing oncology recently who has checked some lab values before doing a bone marrow biopsy and the latest showed an elevated Cd4/Cd8 ratio. I am married with no history whatsoever of drug use and no history of blood transfusion, so HIV is out of the question. What could be the issue and where should I go from here? I feel like I m spinning my wheels trying to get an answer. Energy level and immune system have been extremely low for almost a year now.
