Seizures & Syncope

In leukemia, there’s an overgrowth of either red blood cells or white blood cells, but most of them are abnormal cells making an extra bulk. When the white blood cell count becomes too high, the circulating blood starts moving slowly in the smaller blood vessels of the brain. This condition along with a lack of nutrients would lead to seizures in susceptible patients and other cognitive or brain-related problems.
