A member asked:

Slightly higher wbc everytime i have a blood test. 13-15, i now have a vit d difenecy and am take vit d otc. i have had proteinuria for 6 years?

More than one issue: Taking vitamin D is good, but it is likely unrelated to other issues. Your WBC count may be normal for you, if it is persistently high and you have no fever. Proteinuria is a cause for concern. You need to take it up with your doctor so that the cause may be determined and treatment will depend on the cause.
