Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. Your total count is high. You may have some infection or some other cause. Please send me report of differential wbc count. So that I can help you further. In most of the cases it is due to infection. So don't worry much about that. Just be relaxed. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
