Hi Kelly. What is his condition called? Georgie has inflamed gums, and it has to do with something called eosinophil, an increased level of something in her body. It came up as an elevated white blood cell. It is usually either an allergic reaction to something or a parasite. I was thinking if Micah has IBD, it might be similar to an allergic reaction....when he last had blood work, did it show an elevated white blood cell? I am having Georgie's teeth cleaned with the next few weeks, and then, will have it retested. Good luck!
