Weird CBC results

I'm getting blood drawn. My WBC has been slightly elevated (13.7 for last lab. My doctor noticed some things that concernEd him. The report said there were immature myleocytes and metamyelocytes in the blood (report only said 1 of the each), I had high absolute neutrophils (8.0), and high monocytes (1.8). do immature cells always mean cancer?

Immature cells doesn't mean cancer but you need to see , blast cells in smear and bone marrow aspiration cytology has to be done to confirm.
