we need units. 21000 in the entire body means a lot from 21000 per ml. The differential is more useful in identifying why the white cell count is unusual. You need to know what the percentage lymphocytes , neutrophils, monoytes, eosinophils, basophils etc. Also any microscopic observations on the white blood cells.
You are best asking your doctor, as you require far more information than you have given I'm afraid.
White blood cell count (WBC). The number of white blood cells in a volume of blood. Normal range varies slightly between laboratories but is generally between 4,300 and 10,800 cells per cubic millimeter (cmm). This can also be referred to as the leukocyte count and can be expressed in international units as 4.3 - 10.8 x 109 cells per liter.
http://www.medicinenet.com/complete_blood_count/article.htm Some Hospitals will report 10,800 as 10.8 If it much higher or much lower SEE A DR FAST Post on my discussion board if you want to chat about anything.
Yes. The normal values for 4-7 year old ranged from 5.5-15.5.
5000 to 10000/cumm.
The approximate normal white blood cell count is 4500 to 10000 white blood cells per cubic millimeter. 21000 definitely falls in the approximate high range.
Leukocytosis is a white blood cell count (leukocyte count) that is above the normal range in the blood which is between 6-10 thousand. This high WBC count might be a sign of an infection, inflammation, or allergy. :)
white blood cell count is 11.7 what does this mean?
yes.And the white blood cell will count very high due to the infection of apendicsus.
Eczema do not cause low white blood cell count.
swollen prostate and white cell count 28
differential white blood cell count
If white blood cell count is high that means the body is responding to an infection.
For adults, a high white blood cell count is 10,500 leukocytes per microliter of blood. Average white blood cell count is 4,500 to 10,500.
I'm on it and I was sent to the doctor for a low white blood cell count so maybe
The normal white blood cell count for an adult will be between 4,000 and 10,000 white blood cells per microlitre.
The white blood cell count and differential determine the number of white blood cells and the percentage of each type of white blood cell in a person's blood.
