This is really nothing to worry about. I have had borderline or slightly raised readings before and it certainly hasn't killed me.
Glad it's at least improving.
I did tell you that raised white blood count can be caused by STRESS ....You didnt take any notice tho . You have been stressing a lot lately havent you ? It takes its toll on the physical as well as the mental well being of the individual ..Sue x
I have yet another blood test this week.
Blimey honey, you'll have no blood left soon, and that'll be a real worry! :winks:
Hope things go well.

Raised white blood cells usually indicate that you have an infection within your body. Your body raises its white blood cells to fight off infections. This is their purpose. I have had this happen on occassion and the doctor will just keep repeating your blood tests until they come back clear. It is probably a simple water infection.
Just had my blood test, It was to check B12, Folate, Coeliac Disease and CRP.
I have to have another full blood count done next week as well to check my ESR and WBC levels again. :(
Phoned up this morning and blood test results were abnormal.
