Thread: high white blood cells on lab work?

Forgot to mention the doc said my WBC count was very high.

I don't think the two have anything to do with eachother. AAS can weaken your immune system so that will make you susceptible to colds. I think it's truely coincidental.

Your WBC count was up because your body was clearly fighting an infection which is certain because you were running a fever. Maybe you caught a bad sinus infection or strep throat?

Yep, the WBC value will stay high for a few days. You have sweat spells because your body is heating up to Jill of whatever it is you had. The drainage, possibly from your sinuses, is what is causing the sore throat. Did he give you antibiotics? Just because you might feel better, doesn't mean you should stop taking them. I believe the course of treatment is 14 days.

This is just my own experience but when I get sore injections and I get my blood work done. My WBC is very high as well. But I am not sick, well as far as I know.

I wonder if the gear elevates WBC, I'm trying to find some info on it.

Yes, continue on with your cycle. High WBC count isn't necessarily a "bad" thing. Did he say what the levels are?

I've read that AAS raises both RBC's and WBC's, and elevated RBC count is very common in AAS use.

He didn't say the levels , so maybe I'll call and find out so I can understand just exactly how high they were, if I can get them soon I'll pit them up .
