2.11.06\nToo Many Red Blood Cells?\n\nWhen you are told that you have too many red blood cells, it means that you are either suffering from a disease called Polycythaemia or a disease called Relative Erythrocytosis.\n\n1.- Polycythaemia is a disease where there is an increase  \n- in the red blood cell count\n- in hemoglobin\n- in the total red blood cell volume\n- in total blood volume\n\nThere are 2 types of Polycythaemia\n- primary polycythaemia due to red cell precursors in the bone marrow.\n- secondary polycythaemia not due to red cell precursors but due to \n- lung disease, \n- heart disease, \n- increased altitude, \n- defective haemoglobin, \n- benign and malignant lesions.\n__________________\n       \n2.- Relative Erythrocytosis \n- is a disease caused by fluid loss or decreased intake of fluid. \n- there is no increased blood volume in it.\n__________________\n\nPlease contact me if you need any further information.

The red blood cell (RBC) count determines the total number of red cells (erythrocytes) in a sample of blood. Examination of the erythrocytes provides the doctor/physician with information concerning anemia-related problems and the bone marrow response (which is where RBC's are produced). \nAnemia is basically deficiency of blood in common language.\n\nWhite blood cells (WBC's) are part of the body's defense or immune system.The WBC count provides clues about certain illnesses, and helps physicians monitor a patient's recovery from others.\nBasically WBC count says all about our immunity.The elevation or decrease in WBC decides our disease-eg leukemia.For a layman, yes WBC says about immunity.\nYou want me to give more details??

you may be anemic. my ma bruises easy and she is. just take more iron tablets

There are 3 types of blood cells:- \nred blood cells \nwhite blood cells \nplatelets\n\nThese three types of blood cells are mostly manufactured in the bone marrow.\n\nRed blood cells (also called erythrocytes) are shaped like slightly indented, flattened disks. Red blood cells contain an iron-rich protein called hemoglobin. Blood gets its bright red color when hemoglobin in red blood cells picks up oxygen in the lungs.\n\nWhite blood cells (also called leukocytes) are a key part of the body's system for defending itself against infection. They can move in and out of the bloodstream to reach affected tissues. The blood contains far fewer white blood cells than red cells, although the body can increase production of white blood cells to fight infection. They fight germs such as bacteria and viruses and may also attempt to destroy cells that have become infected or have changed into cancer cells. \n\nPlatelets (also called thrombocytes) are tiny oval-shaped cells made in the bone marrow. They help in the clotting process.\n\nU asked what can happen when white blood cells are not enough.. 3 most known diseases:-\n\nNeutropenia -occurs when there aren't enough of a certain type of white blood cell to protect the body against bacterial infections. People who take certain chemotherapy drugs to treat cancer may develop neutropenia. \n\nHIV -a virus that attacks certain types of white blood cells (lymphocytes) that work to fight infection. Infection with the virus can result in AIDS leaving the body prone to infections and certain other diseases.\n\nLeukemia -cancer of the cells that produce white blood cells.\n\nIt is good if you can visit a pharmacist and get advise on the right supplement to take to balance the white blood cells in your blood. Every case/person is unique - so there's no 1 supplement that should work for every person with blood cell disorder.\n\nGood luck.

The average adult male has 9 pints of blood in his body.  If you were given the 7 units all at once very quickly, then you came very close to being fatally hypovolemic. If the 7 units were given to you over a long period of time to replenish what you were slowly losing due to the bleeder, then they could have just been 'topping you off'.

A slightly elevated amount of white cells (not red) in your blood. This might be due to an infection.

if you're not making red blood cells, there may be a problem with your bone marrow - bone marrow is where you synthesize new red blood cell. Don't worry. Talk to your doctor about it & ask them about a drug called Erythropoietin Alpha. It's a synthetic form of a hormone that your body produces to stimulate the production of ned RBCs. \n\nGood luck. Also, eat plenty of red meat!

It seems that this is a contradiction. Anaemia means a low Haemoglobin usually beacause of too few red blood cells, and Polycythaemia means too many red blood cells, reflected in a high Haemoglobin.

Mature human RBC have no nucleus.\n\nMuscle cells have several, as a result of cells fusing together.

Its like gas for a car. Blood is a oxygen carrier, and supports all the body organs. If anyone loses too much of it- too bad!

Yes.  Sometimes the blood isn't very red at the beginning and the end.  Expect it to be weird before it gets regular- just keep supplies with you just in case and keep track of it.

Blood is about 7% of the human body weight, so the average adult has a blood volume of about 5 litres, of which 2.7-3 litres is plasma. Human blood density is around 1060 kg/m³. The combined surface area of all the red cells in the human body would be roughly 2,000 times as great as the body's exterior surface

Leukemia is an abnormal increase in whiteblood cells.\nBut there is not enough white blood cells that actually fight infection\nUsually accompanied by fatigue and weakness and anemia\n\nA good explanation from a site:\n\nIn a healthy person, the bone marrow makes the blood-forming cells that turn into the white blood cells, red blood cells and platelets in the blood. An ALL patient's marrow makes too many blast cells (immature white blood cells). These blast cells should turn into the white blood cells called lymphocytes, but they do not. So many blast cells grow that the marrow does not have room to make the normal red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets. This causes these symptoms of ALL:\n\n\nAnemia -- feeling tired, short of breath and looking pale, caused by too few red blood cells \nBruising easily and having cuts that heal slowly or not at all, caused by too few platelets \nHaving frequent infections, especially of the skin or ear, caused by too few normal white blood cells

White blood cell (leukocyte) count.

Red blood cell (RBC) count. Red blood cells carry oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body. They also carry carbon dioxide back to the lungs so it can be exhaled. If the RBC count is low (anemia), the body may not be getting the oxygen it needs. If the count is too high (a condition called polycythemia vera), there is a risk that the red blood cells will clump together and block tiny blood vessels (capillaries).

You could also be anemic.  Have a blood test done and check that out.

well i know that a human red blood cell is 10 µm (10 - 30 µm), I'm not sure what a virus is but i think it is significantly smaller.
