Brief Answer: Follows. Detailed Answer: Dear Sir, Thank you for posting your query on HCM. Well looking into your query I will like to tell you that your WBC count is mildly raised rest everything is grossly normal . Urine examination is also not suggestive of anything . This raised WBC count is suggestive of some infection but your urine examination. In my opinion, the test needs to be repeated; because it is not conclusive of anything . Take care. Dr. Shruti
