Well, if you've a cancer history then there are few chances that may be diagnosed with cancer again but not necessarily. So, it is better to check with your doctor to avoid future risks.

Lymphocytosis (increase in relative or absolute lymphocyte count) can occur in patients with pertussis, syphilis, viral infections, hypersensitivity reactions, and certain subtypes of leukemia or lymphoma.
Not necessarily. Elevated WBC are usually a sign of infection or inflammation, although this can also be seen with leukemia or myeloproliferative disorder. What kind of cancer did you have in the past? Are you also experiencing any constitutional symptoms (e.g., fever, night sweats, and/or weight loss)? Are any of your tumor markers elevated? It is recommended that you see a hematologist/oncologist for further workup and evaluation.
