  5. I recently got some blood work done, and my WBC count is higher than normal. I'm worried it might indicate an infection or some kind of issue in my body. How can I figure out what's going on, and what kind of diagnosis should I be asking for? What steps should I take next?

Always it must be symptomatic approach if you have no symptoms repeat the test after a week if its still on higher side that need evaluation like chest xray,Us abdomen,urine culture etc.,visit Physician for the same
