Guest guest Posted July 10, 2008 Report Share Posted July 10, 2008 White Blood Count (WBC) is the number of white cells. High WBC can be a sign of infection. WBC is also increased in certain types of leukemia. Low white counts can be a sign of bone marrow diseases or an enlarged spleen. Low WBC is also found in HIV infection in some cases. (ed. note: The vast majority of low WBC counts in our population is NOT HIV related.) You wrote your white blood count was low.......Your doctor will discuss this with you. but most likely it is due to your having an enlarged spleen which is common for us. But, ask your doctor.
