you can get a transfusion if your doctor thinks it is necessary.  I know there are some herbs and stuff that bring it up we used some when my grandmother was sick but i forget what they are maybe you should goggle it or something

Conditions that increase WBC values include infection, inflammation, damage to body tissues (such as a heart attack), severe physical or emotional stress (such as a fever, injury, or surgery), burns, kidney failure, lupus, tuberculosis (TB), rheumatoid arthritis, malnutrition, leukemia, and diseases such as cancer. \nThe use of corticosteroids, underactive adrenal glands, thyroid gland problems, or removal of the spleen can increase WBC values.

Let your food heal you\n\nFolic acid are needed for the production of red and white blood cells and platelets.\n\nEat Bannanas and Oranges, Spinach, eggs, and Lima Beans.\n\nTake Prenatal Vitamins with etra Iron\n\nTake MSM supplement for sulfur\n\nTake Extra Vitamin C until Diahrhea begins then back off\n\nI would also take cottage cheese with cold flax seed oil in a frut cocktail\n\nI would do the Water Cure\nhttp://curezone.com/foods/watercure.asp\n\nI would take a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar in carrot juice with cinnamon every day.\n\nhttp://curezone.com/blogs/f.asp?f=179&p=1

White blood cells fight infection.  You can eat yogurt with active yeast cultures, this gives the body good bacteria to fight off bad bacteria in the body.  ie: yeast infections.

there is a condition that can cause increase wbc with out outward signs of infection. they are a form of autoimmune disorder. it is Hypersensitivity reactions. it is classified in 3 categories 1,2,3 depending on what condition is causing the increase in WBC's. what is happening in this condition is the body's immune system is over reaction to a real physical condition. the condition could be from something as simple as a miner allergic that you can not detect, arthritic condition or something more sever in vary rare cases antigens can attach them self's to body organs and even RBC causing the body to form antibody's to the cell the antibody's stimulate WBC production. the WBC would Destroy the RBC causing anemia. the anemia could cause lite headiness and fatigue along with other symptoms that can be mild and misdiagnosed like depression. The test to detect this antigen is the direct anti globulin (Coombs) and the anti-non-v-globulin tests. this is Rare and is unlikely it is more likely you have an infection that you have not picked up on the symptoms yet. as long as you have the symptoms keep working with you doctor but also do home work and make suggestion about things. docs know a lot of things but do not know everything.

Wash your hands always and if you know somebody around you has a cold make sure you stay away from them.\nEspecialy at work make sure you don't touch your eyes ears nose or mouth if you have been near or touched door handles, pens, keyboards etc when sick people are in work.\n\nThis works for me, I used to get colds and flu every 2 - 3 months then I started bieng more careful and I had my first cold in 3 years  just 2 weeks ago.\n\nVitamins are not the answer, I eat fruit maybe once a month and I pretty much live off microwave meals, toast, biscuits and takeaways.\n\nOh and don't take drugs, these make it very easy to get a cold in the weeks after taking them.

Leukocyte or white blood cell count just lets the doctor know there is an infection.  And there are many internal infections that can cause elevated WBC's.  But, elevated WBC's do not cause infection...it just says there is one somewhere.\n\nThe other symptoms you present will lead your doctor into knowing where the infection is and what antibiotic to treat it with.

depending on what's low your red blood cells or your white ones.  But to stabilize blood cell count iron pills are usually issued.  After being prescribed these pills your blood cell count should go from low to normal.

Eat more healthy, exercise, check amounts of sugar being consumed. There's not really much else to say.

exercise makes red blood cells\njust cardio workouts like brisk walking or a stair stepper or buy a video of the ti bo workout\nthen eat more fruits and vegies and nuts\ntry coral calcium and green tea

Actually, I would need just a little bit more information.  Often when a doctor talks about low blood, it usualy means red blood cells but some of what you have posted also seems to indicate a low white cell count as well.\nIf the red count is the problem, a transfusion of packed red cells would, if the count is low enough, bring levels up quickly.  Iron supplements or an iron rich diet would help bring the red count up or help keep it up after transfusion if it is necessary.\nIf the white count is also low, things get a little more complicated.  A whole blood transfusion could be done, but units of whole blood would probably have to be specially collected from someone giving blood directly to the patient.  Most blood centers do not keep whole blood any more, they divide a unit into packed red blood cells, fresh frozen plasma, platelets and sometimes up to two other fractions so as to help as many people as possible from each unit of blood.  If a whole blood transfusion doesn't solve the problem, a bone marrow transplant may be the last choice.\nFirst thing to do is to find out just what the problem is, low blood count is a symptom not a disease in itself, something else is  causing this, you need to know what that is.  At first guess, I would suggest seeing a Hematologist, this is a doctor specializing in blood and dlood diseases.

(m)\n\nCancer-related causes of low blood cell counts include:\n\nChemotherapy. Certain chemotherapy drugs can damage your bone marrow — the spongy material found in your bones. Your bone marrow makes blood cells. When it's damaged, your bone marrow doesn't produce as many blood cells and your blood counts drop. Your doctor can tell you whether your specific chemotherapy treatment and dose will put you at risk of low blood cell counts. \nRadiation therapy. If you receive radiation therapy to large areas of your body and especially to the large bones that contain the most bone marrow, such as your pelvis, legs and torso, you might experience low levels of red and white blood cells. Radiation therapy is less likely to have a significant effect on your platelet count. Radiation combined with chemotherapy increases your risk of low blood cell counts. \nCancers of the blood and bone marrow. Blood and bone marrow cancers, such as leukemia, attack different parts of your bone marrow. The cancerous cells can displace other cells in your bone marrow, making it difficult for your bone marrow to produce the blood cells your body needs. \nCancers that spread (metastasize). Cancer cells that break off from a tumor can spread to other parts of your body, including your bone marrow. Some examples of cancers that could spread to your bone marrow include breast cancer, lung cancer and prostate cancer. This is an unusual cause of low blood counts.

Go to a Doctor and ask to be tested for everything. Run blood work especially. Sounds like your white "T" cells are low.

Luckily the aplastic crisis is transient.  That means the blood count problem will be temporary.  Sometimes this happens because of an infection or from a drug.  You can hang out with her as long as her doctor says her white blood count is normal.  Have fun but let her rest a lot and don't let her get stressed out.  Good luck.

White cell count tells you there is an inflammatory reaction-it does not tell if there is an infection because A) there are types of viral or bacterial infections and situations in which the body does not respond to the infection properly, and thus WBC does not increase and \nB) there are numerous situations in which WBC will increase in the absence of infection.\nThe only truly valid method is to culture the area of infection and see if there are pathological bacteria or viruses present.  There are currently very sensitive ELISA assays for a number of diseases, which can show the presence of the virus or bacteria immediately, without having to wait for the culture.
