The ABC Homeopathy Forum

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
WBC has to do with your
immune system trying to fight off a virus, allergy or infection. Acute stress, physical or mental can cause
a higher count.
Infection
* Use of certain medications, such as corticosteroids,
antibiotics or anti-seizure drugs
* Severe physical or emotional stress
* Chronic bone marrow diseases such as a
myeloproliferative disorder
* Acute or chronic leukemia
* Tissue damage, such as from burns-
And Inflammation---
Inflammation is characterized by several familiar signs, redness, swelling, heat and pain. To understand inflammation is to understand how and why these signs develop. Inflammation can sometimes be triggered inappropriately (e.g., by allergies or autoimmune diseases). Many common medical treatments (e.g., aspirin and other "anti-inflammatory agents") are intended to relieve the discomfort and/or reduce the attendant tissue disturbance that inflammation may cause. In addition, a combination of vasodilation with thickening of the blood (due to fluid leaking out of the vessels) causes a slowing of flow rate, which encourages leukocytes or white blood cells (leuko = white, cyte = cell) to stick to the sides of the vessels. This is called "margination" or "pavementing". From here the leukocytes crawl between the endothelial cells and enter the inflammed connective tissue. Increased metabolic activity associated with leukocyte activity also generates heat (calor), contributing to local warmth
Millions of people have negative thoughts everyday, but
their WBC is in normal range.-Increased negative thoughts can be caused by having lower energy
levels due any of the above going on.
