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 Does Elevated WBC Count,blood Pressure, Red Cell Distribution, Albion Gap And Chloride Indicate?
Hi, what can high white blood cell count, high blood pressure and high red cell distribution mean? My albion gap and chloride is a little elevated too. My levels are just a little elevated and my blood pressure is 142/100. I am really dizzy, light headed, really bad headache and pain on my right side??
Feeling dizzy, light headed and headache is related to increased blood pressure you are experiencing. I suggest to consult with your cardiologist and to run cardiac tests to get properly treated.
High white blood cell count are indicative for a possible infection in your body. I'd suggest to consult with your physician to find out the source of the infection and get it treated properly.
A slight elevation in anion gap and chloride you are reporting could be related to damages of the kidney (most probably due to infection). Therefore, I suggest to get properly treated if any kidney/urinary tract infection/problem is concluded.
You are also reporting to have high red cell distribution, which means that your red blood cells have a great size variations. Studies have concluded that the higher the red cells distribution, the higher the risks for cardiovascular events and atherosclerotic plaques.
You can discuss this further with your cardiologist to get the ways of improving your lab results.
