See below...: You may have an infection or an inflammatory state even in the absence of symptoms. If you do have some symptoms, i recommend repeating the CBC to make sure values are returning to normal; however, other explanations are possible including serious diseases like leukemia, more specifically chronic myelogenous leukemia. Please consult your doctor or a hematologist.
