What is a normal wbc count?

Answer by  Tonybone (80)

The normal WBC count ranges from about 5000 to 10000 per cubic mm. The total WBC count consists of the total number of 5 subgroups of immune cells: neutrophils, eosinophils, basophils, lymphocytes and macrophages. Even when a patient's WBC count presents within normal range, it is still important to confirm the proper cell count for the subgroups.

The WBC count is the number of white blood cells in a given volume of blood, usually expressed as thousands per cubic millimetre. High counts may indicatate an infection or inflammation, or be sympomatic of a condition like leukemia. A low count could indicate an immune system deficiency. The normal range is 4,300 to 10,800 cells per cubic millimeter

A WBC count is depending on the lab that does the testing. A normal WBC count is between 5,000 and 10,000. Although depending on the lab it may be a little above or below this and still be considered normal. When you get your results back, make sure you ask what is normal for that lab's results.
