A member asked:
What do you think, could most cancers result in a higher than normal white blood cell count in a blood test?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Most will not: Most cancers will not result in an elevated white blood cell count. A type of leukemia called cll is one exception-- these counts can be extremely high.
