High WBC Count

2 Replies

Question. Can the steroid injections I received in June of 2018 be the reason my WBC count is high? My WBC is 60,000. I got an injection in each hip.

I assume you have posted on this site because of some concern your high wbc could be Cll. If that is your concern, there are some easy tests doctors can run to rule cll in or out as a cause of your high wbc.

I am no expert, but I think it would be highly unlikely steroids pushed wbc that high.
