Did you ask meaning?: An elevated white blood cell count, particularly with a predominance of neutrophils indicates that your body is trying to fight off an infection--cold/wound/urinary tract/etc., etc. It is normal for the level to rise and fall, depending on the "battle status" of your immune system.

Anxiety: Often anxiety is a comorbid diagnsosis with psoriasis, which is to say that people with excessive and/or prolonged anxiety may be at higher risk for psoriais. Consider getting a referral to a reputable psychotherapist to help better manage your anxiety.
