Brief Answer:
due to chronic inflammatory state

Detailed Answer:
The hemoglobin is fine. WBC and monocytes are slightly elevated, nothing through the roof. This much elevation of monocytes and WBC may be due to a chronic inflammatory state like hidradenitis suppurativa. In fact, this can also occur with humira treatment.

So there is nothing to worry for now. Just a followup test after few weeks should suffice.

Brief Answer:
unlikely to be related to this blood reports

Detailed Answer:
Your symptoms are definitely concerning but can't be explained by this report. It is not suggestive of leukemia. If you can send me all the parameters then I can say with certainty.

Regarding the symptoms you will need to report them to your doc and get more investigations including body scans, cardiac check up, hormonal panel, etc.
