That is a high WBC, but it could be a lot of different things.  The main question, is what did your doctor say.  Is he or she running any other tests on  you?
     I would get some further testing to see if they can come up with a definite diagnosis for you.  Please let us know how you are doing.  Take Care.

It is slightly elevated, but that doesn't say much of anything. Infections and viruses can cause a slight elevation. What are the rest of your lab results? That can point us in a direction.
