[|Human|] My 10 year old daughter has an WBC of 16.5 with Hematocrit of 34.3 and has free fluid that showed in her pelvis on a CT scan, should I be concerned? She has been having frequent abd. pain as well as joint pain and fever that has been coming and going the last couple months.
[|AI|]  Brief answer:Indicates infection. Detailed answer:Hi, welcome to Chat Doctor. Hematocrit of 34.3 means that hemoglobin is around 12 mg/DL, which is normal for this age. WBC of 16.5 indicates infection, normal WBC count is between 4 and 11 thousand. CT scan is showing free fluid in abdomen which also suggests infection. In my opinion, child should be investigated for tuberculosis, gram negative sepsis. Further treatment will depend on above investigations. I think this will help you. Take care. Regards: Chat Doctor.
