Cell Disorders

Cell disorders can be extremely dangerous and even fatal if not caught in time and treated. White cell disorders are the most common and can be dangerous if your white blood cells no longer fight infection.

Leukemia

• Leukemia is a term used for several types of diseases that affect the body's tissues that form blood. Unfortunately, there is no definite cure for this disorder, although there are treatments that may send it into remission.

Neutrophenia

• Neutrophenia is a disease of the cells that causes your body to either not create new cells in the bone marrow or prematurely destroys autoimmune cells that fight off bacteria and infections.

Lymphocytopenia

• Lymphocytopenia is a condition that occurs when lymphocyte cells are at a low level, decreasing the amount of infections the cells fight off.

Monocyte Disorder

• Monocyte disorder occurs when the number of monocyte cells, which regulate immune responses, is lower than normal.

Eosinophilia

• Eosinophilia occurs when there are an increased level of eosinophil cells, which can increase as a result of allergies, infection or other foreign substances. This is not always dangerous and does not always require treatment.

Hypereosinophilic Syndrome

• Hypereosinophilic syndrome occurs when there are too many eosinophils accumulating in the blood. This can cause damage to many organs within the body.
