After a routine physical my blood work showed my white blood cell count dropped 25%. I was always borderline low so now I was very low. Saw a specialist and she is running more test and watching my levels to see if I may need a bone marrow biopsy. I asked if my condition may be linked to recent radiation and Lupron. She said it may. Went home concerned that now I have another medical condition to worry about. After a brief research on the Web I found that Lupron can cause anemia in men. I say men because it looks like Lupron can help women with anemia. Has any body else found there white blood count go down after anemia?
