My wife recently went to the doctor because she's been having some joint pain. She's only 33, and the doctor recommended a CBP test and an ESR test. The results show her Total WBC Count is 11200, her absolute lymphocyte count is 4480, and her ESR is 22. I did a bit of research online and found out that a high WBC count could be alarming and might even indicate cancer. Are these results something we should be really worried about? Do they suggest anything serious we should be aware of?

I've had several tests donea breast ultrasound, MRI, X-ray, and even an echoand they all came back normal.
