Brief Answer:
As explained below.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for the query.

I have gone through the details.

Stem cell infusion usually causes a mild increase in the hemogram. You are having a mild increase in the levels. It is normal. Nothing to worry.
This indicates that your new immune system has started to work.

I hope this answered your query.
