What causes a wbc count to be slightly high from normal range?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Many reasons: It may be "the normal" for that person, physiologic causes include pregnancy. Infection is a usual reason for elevated wbc. For a list of causes consult the website given below:http://www.Mayoclinic.Com/health/high-white-blood-cell-count/my00161/dsection=causes.
