Default Re: Leukocytosis
Do you know why is this patient having leukocytosis? is there an underlying condition causing it? like bacterial or viral infection? or maybe cancer? then you can formulate your diagnosis and iterventions based on that.

Look for interventions relating to infection/infection control, especially with her DM.
