we did ask her doctor and he cant find anything wrong but they are keeping her in the hospital for a while until they do figure something out! shes pale she is puking blood and she doesnt want to do anything. Last friday she was in a wreck but i dont think that would have anything to do with this sickness she has had. Shes been sick since the day after the wreck.

An elevated number of white blood cells is called leukocytosis. This can result from bacterial infections, inflammation, leukemia, trauma, or stress.
A decreased WBC count is called leukopenia. It can result from many different situations, such as chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or diseases of the immune system.
A WBC is done as part of a CBC test (complete blood count) and the phlebotemist or doctor should be able to interpret it for her and explain anything that appears abnormal.
Are you just fishing for something or what?

If your sister has had a white blood cell count, and there's something wrong, the doctor would have told her. No need to ask us on Yahoo, ask her doctor.

white blood count should be on average between 450 and 1000. if it is high, she likely has an infection of some sort. just knowing white count and nothing else cannot give you a diagnosis.
