Good morning, @faithbeatrice. That’s one of the hardest moments in a parent’s life…when your little one isn’t feeling well and you don’t know what to do for her.

You mentioned that her white blood count is elevated. This can be a sign of an infection or her immune system reacting to inflammation. It may be something as simple as a virus such as RSV. Does she have a fever or other symptoms?
Does her doctor have any diagnosis for your daughter?
