A member asked:

I have had 2 blood test one on 7/25/12 and one last week thewbc on the 1st one was 11.6 and the one last week 11.5 i am concerned. what can this be?

Likely normal: The difference between 11.6 and 11.5 is not meaningful. Your count is barely above the normal range and it may be normal for you. Do you have any symptoms? If not, leave it alone.

High nml/infection,,: This could be an infection as it is a high normal or slightly elevated level, but without other readings and/or symptoms it is hard to say this is anything at all. If you don't have any other suspect readings, and/or if you feel all-right, i would say don't worry about it. If you are still concerned, you can see your doctor and get your medical records to look at this level throughout your life.
