Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.

I have gone through your query and understand your concerns.
It is hard to comment about your neck swelling without examining it clinically.
If you have GERD, you can benefit from taking omeprazole once daily before breakfast. Also take small but frequent meals. Try to reduce stress as it aggravates GERD. You can benefit from yoga and meditation.
The WBC count seems raised thus indicating the possibility of a bacterial infection. Please tell me why you needed to get the test done in the first place.

Let me know if there is anything specific that I could help you with.
