What would my complete blood count look like if i had Leukemia?
paraglidman – How your complete blood count (CBC) would look if you had leukemia depends upon which of the many different types of leukemia you have and whether it is beginning or more advanced. A CBC describes red blood cells (RBCs), white blood cells (WBCs), and platelets. RBCs are often decreased and occasionally immature, some with immature nuclei. WBCs, while possibly decreased, may be enormously increased with many immature forms (called blasts). Platelets, valuable for proper clotting, are often decreased. Te different type of cells involved help with the exact diagnosis. Normal values for RBCs, WBCs, and platelets are commonly listed on the lab report for comparison.
