chronic high white count not sick
I am never sick but for severl years now I have always had a high white cell count my lowest is 12 my last test was 18 I was sent to a blood cancer doctor he tested me and got the 12 he said if it fluctuates and is not creeping higher not to worry about it just check it.
I have not be tested this month but I know it is high again. last month it was the 18 I mentioned. I have no symptoms and the meds I take lower the white count not raise it. my highest level was about two years ago at 33 it has come down to averaging around 20ish this year.
do I worry or not.... my gut says worry but mostly because I dont know what is causing this... recently I have been diagnosed with GERD for my never ending nausia but I feel no pain. they did a special ct with contrast and put me on a table that slowly reclined me... that was how they found I have sever GERD. what tests should I ask for to get my worries cleared up.
thanks
DC
