What Could Be Cause Of High Red Blood Cell Count, Cancer Sores, Urinary Infection? Is It HIV Infection?
I shared a crack pipe. The next day I had a canker sore in my cheek. Then 2 weeks later 26 canker sores inside my lower lip. I also may have thrush and today doctor said I have a urinary infection. I have to give blood because my red blood cell count is too high. I am worried. Do I have an hiv infection?

If doctor says you have got urnary tract infection then the report must have indication. First you have to be treated for UTI.If redcell count is more why should you give blood. Leucocytosis indicates infection in blood.You can go for urine and blood culture. You should listen to doctor.Do not apprehend disease. There is test to confirm or exclude disease. Tell your complain to doctor and go by his advice . You always can go for second opinion.
