So is the range 4,000 to 10,000?
What does your Dr. say about it? I'm thinking it's higher because you are fighting an infection.

My wbc have been on the low side since treating. (usually around 3.0 - 3.5) - I think the range is 4-10

I looked at some old labs and mine seem to have been hanging around the 3.0-4.0. No doctor ever said anything was wrong with that. Now I'm thinking that they definitely should have been higher.

High wbc count could be many things.

My husband's WBC was 12 when 7 weeks after tickbite (before he was treated) When he got treated, it went back down to 8.
