Could Wellbutrin Reduce White Cell Blood Count?

Hello, my family doctor is sending me to a local oncologist because I ve had very low white cell blood counts. In the meantime I ve researched some on my own and saw where Wellbutrin can cause this over a long period of time. I have been taking 425 mg. of it since my son died, 10 years ago. Could this be my problem? Thank you, Cathy

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, and you could be right on your place that some medicine could be the reason for low count but this is not the only reason behind this and some pathology need to be ruled out and this could be more important than this, and in my opinion you need to have expert opinion, hope this information helps, take care.
