HI
Thank for asking to HCM
It would be much helpful if you would have give little clinical history and the routine blood test report, at least the white blood cell count is very important, in case of sepsis the total WBC count increases, if it is sepsis then proper treatment will bring the good result, you can discuss it with your doctor, even can be in touch with HCM for further advise, take care of your friend bye.
