A member asked:

I got my cbc back and my wbc is 15.4 and my abs neutrophils was 10 and im scared.i go back friday to get blood work redone.what could be wrong?

Not sure: Your white blood cell count is slightly elevated which can be caused by numerous conditions most likely infection. I wonder if you are referring to a percent of absolute neutrophils of 10 % because an Absolute neutrophil count should be around 1500 so I doubt a count of only 10. Keep the follow-ip with your doctor.
