Subject: Panic attacks

I had to write on here to see if anyone has had anything similar I was in mxt a while ago but only managed 5 weeks on it due to side effects I'm back on it 10 mg along with 50 enbrel (soon to be changing to humira) I had my fortnightly bloods done and initially they said the result looked fine then I got a letter today saying I needed to book a telephone consult my WBC is 3.03 and a few other of the things tested are low Ive read all the things online and now I wish I had never looked because I've had a major panic attack I'm not getting the consult until Wednesday I'm freaking out help......

Hi Lynn, when you are on mtx it can lower the white blood count, that is why we get the bloods checked so often so that things can be picked up quickly. This happened to me a few years ago and i had to stay off my medication for a wee while until it went back up again. I wouldn't worry too much especially if they are seeing you on wednesday. take care xx
