Worried about blood work

[CJWH]

I have for the past 1 1/2 years had a WBC that has been elevated (most recent 13.2), I feel fine though.  In the past it had been assoc w/ cat scratch, infection, etc always treated w/ antibiotics.  I was not happy about the drs explaination and wanted to find out the reason it was elevated or at least investigate further.  I was sent for blood work and the results were;  wbc 13.2, lym 4.9 mid 1.8, gran 6.5, rbc 4.61, hgb 11.5, hct 38.1, mcv 82.6, mch 24.9, mchc 30.2, rdw 15.3, plt 368, mpv 9.5, leukocyte alkaline phoe score 77, ferritin 25 and c-reactive protein 10.0,  The doctor told me to take iron tablets as I am anemic.  I am concerned at the CRP (that is an indicator of heart disease?) and still the WBC.  My dad and his mother both had heart disease (his mother lived into her 90s though and he is still alive, in his 70s, he has a defribilator attached to his heart, several HA and a stroke, he is doing well with his medication) my mom recently had a stint inserted for a blockage.  The Dr does check my cholesterol (always good), blood pressure (has been high lately as I am so nervous) and has done cardiograms which have always been normal.  What else should I do?
I am 33, I feel good, I could stand to lose 45lbs
I have had lupus test come back negative.

Thank you for your time, sorry to be so long.

C-reactive protein can be elevated from any sort of infection, or from autoimmune diseases. Mine was at 11 once when I had a flare of ulcerative colitis and had nothing to do with my heart. However, it is a sign of inflammation and the cause should be found. As for the ferritin, anywhere from 10-200 is normal for a female. Mine is currently a 6 and I am also on iron supplements. Your red blood cell counts are slightly low, but not that bad. If you have a chronic illness, those counts are usually slightly lower than normal, and you might be anemic from a chronic illness also.

Thank you for your response, I have been so nervous over this,  I was sent for a sonogram of my spleen (it was fine) and a chest x-ray (waiting for results).  The Dr wants to do a bone marrow test also, he said if that shows nothing, we will just monitor the CRP and WBC.  Is there anything else I should do?  or allow the wait and watch approach?

Thanks again
