      WBC is white blood cell count and I wake up nauseated and not long after I'm in the bathroom getting sick and I stay nauseated all day and throughout the day I get sick everything I eat comes right back up. I have dierea and no energy.

      Sounds awful. Can you ask your doc if he'll refer you to a specialist in whatever he thinks your problem is? Trouble is they're all on tight budgets these days so we have to insist most of the time. I don't think the GP can refuse if your ill and worried. We have to be assertive if we need answers sometimes. Take care, Pollyanna. rolleyes

    Certainly there has to be a reason. Did they check urine for infection? 

    Certain antibiotics work only for a particular strain of bacteria.  Is tis white blood count in the blood or urine. If in the urine they need to do a culture to check the bacteria.
