Hello and thanks for posting,
I am not comppletely sure, I expect the answer to this depends on the type of chemotherapy, but a year after treatment ends I think a lot of people would have a normal count, although probably not everyone. However it sounds like your WBC is only slightly on the low side which can happen for other reasons. It is common to repeat blood tests when something is slightly outside of the normal range, but usually it puts itself right.
Best wishes,
