A member asked:
I was told i have an enlarged spleen and my wbc, and platelets were low how often should they be checked for changes?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Find the cause: If this is mild gaucher's disease, a touch of rheumatoid arthritis, or something similar, it'll be your physician's call based on how low the levels are and whether this warrant's a diagnosis of felty's. If the explanation is unclear and your physician is perhaps seeking a primary hematopoietic disease, expect an in-depth workup. Wishing you good luck. Treat people, not lab values.
