Suggest Remedy For Low White Cell Count With Rashes And Body Aches

I am a 50 year old female, 5'3", 138 lbs. I've had a low white cell count (2.0) for over 3 years now. Lupus was suspected but has now been dismissed after treatments of steriods and Azathioprine only lowered the count. A bone marrow biopsy performed 2 years ago did not offer an explanation. Other symptoms I am experiencing which may or may not be related are body aches, fatigue, frequent skin rashes, overly dry skin, occasional shortness of breath. Any thoughts?

Hi, dear.
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You have leucopenia with rash and bodyache. You may have some viral infection or some other lesion. You should go for repeat bone marrow examination. Persistent leucopenia needs bone marrow examination.
Go for it. Then take treatment accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
