What Causes Elevated White Blood Cells?

My husband had bladder cancer (inside) about 4 years ago. It was removed gets checked ever 6 months along with Psa test. Went to doctor for blood work now has elevated white blood cells, has to go back in two weeks for recheck. If still elevated has to go to oncologist. No symptoms except for losing weight. Could this be some form of cancer?

Hi Welcom to HCM
I have gone thru your query . I can understand your concern regarding elevated WBC
I would tlike to know what is the WBC count ? Any medication going on ?
Elevation of white blood cells is caused by many factors :--
Immune system targets the thyroid gland causing hormonal changes that affect the levels of white blood cells

Reactions to certain types of medications may result in an increased white blood cell count. These include drugs such as corticosteroids, beta-antagonists and lithium based drugs.
Diseases such as lymphoma and leukemia, a form of blood cancer may also cause the bone marrow to produce excessive amounts of white blood cells.
White blood cells to fight any infection will therefore result in an increased white blood cell count.
Name of the disease doesn't matter as for as our immune system is concered.Strong immune system gives prtection from diseases big ior small by preventing pathogens such as bacteria and viruses from entering the organism.
