White cells: While anything is possible, however, from your limited info provided here, I do not see any evidence of leukemia here. There are many different conditions that may increase white blood cells- most common things include infection, inflammation, trauma/irritation, medication etc- not just cancer. Your neutrophils counts are in normal range. Stop smoking& alcohol if you do. Follow up with your doctor.
