Depends on high the white count is. If it's slightly high e.g 12000 with no left shift or fever then it can be ignored. If it's greater than 50,000 then leukemia should be looked for. Further workup including peripheral smear and bone marrow examination should be done in consultation with your doctor. 6K views

Liang-Hai Sie is correct, and I’d like to add that looking at tests in isolation in many cases is unhelpful, context is very important and often, we don’t convey that message very clearly as doctors. That’s largely because we do a lot of it unconsciously when the patient is in front of us. 6.5K views · Answer requested by
