Leukemia white blood cells Posted: 02-19-08 11:13am
I have always been a healthy
person...rarely if ever do I get sick.
But for the last 7 months I keep getting
infections (per my dr). I go on
antibiotics, feel better for a few days
and then feel awful again...this cycle has
been going on for months. I also lost 15
pounds, get nights sweats, and I'm always
exhausted. My doctor keeps on telling me
it's an infection in my body because my
white blood cell count is high, but with
the medicine shouldn't I have felt better
after my first round?? Why does it keep
coming back?? Any thoughts??

my brother had all the symptoms u have. he
was told he had a blood infection and took
medicine and was fine for a few days. he
went to the doctor and was diognosed with
a rare blood cancer. i would go to another
doctor and get a second oppinion.
