HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

The key would be finding out the cause of the increase in the white blood cell count (WBC).

You may need to be referred to a hematologist, a doctor dealing with abnormalities in the blood such as high wbc.

B vitamins normally help to increase the appetite should you can try a supplement with these.

I hope this helps
