Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Yes, fatty liver disease, hepatitis & cirrhosis or liver failure do cause low WBC Count. This is due to damage to the liver cells. The symptoms that you are experiencing are because of it. Some medicines also cause Low WBC count like antihistaminic, anticonvulsants, barbiturate, even some antibiotics. You need to visit ER and get examined, delay may worsen your problem. Get treated well. You need antibiotics, liver tonic, diet restriction & general vitamin supplements.
