White blood cell count in acute hiv
Hello doctor
I want to ask you that in acute hiv disease ( like 12-14 ) days after exposure , what are the changes in counts of white blood cells.
Do they increase or decrease?
Do neutrophils increases immediately after hiv exposure ?
Or lymphocyte count or leukocytes count decreases ?

WBCs respond to acute infection immediately.
And HIV is not an acute infection. So we don't diagnose HIV by WBC count.
