@joanmroby, welcome. I moved your question about idiopathic pancytopenia into its own discussion in the Blood Disorders support group. Pancytopenia is a condition that occurs when a person has low counts for all three types of blood cells: red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. While pancytopenia is not an autoimmune condition, some autoimmune conditions can cause pancytopenia.

I'm tagging a few members like @tyson1221 @peach414144 @catherine1290 @darlas1967 who have experience with pancytopenia to join this discussion.

Joan, when do you start treatment with Rituxin? How are you feeling?
