High WBC: What is the hemoglobin and hematocrit? Are there any symptoms of infection? Was the peripheral smear reviewed ? The leukocytosis at this point needs further workup.

Hard to be certain..: But these counts seem more consistent with a reactive process. You WBC count is on the high side, but your absolute neutrophil count (anc) is ~10k and your PLT count is normal. Neutrophils only last ~24hrs once made, so a high ANC suggests robust marrow synthetic function. Your PLT count supports this as well. Cml, while uncommom, is possible. Confer with your dr., but i'd be surprised by ca.
