Neutropenia and Prolia

Hi Greenie,
I am new to the forum. I have been on most of the treatments over a good number of years.
I do not have and not heard of Neutropenia.
I have a low lymphocyte count this was picked up on after my 2 year course of Forsteo.
Lymphocytes are also a type of white blood cell.
I also have had 1 injection of Prolia and have decided not to go ahead with another owing to the bad side effects I have had,and are still experiencing.
I have just discovered from your question that among the causes of low lymphocytes are Opioids and some Biphosphonates!!!!
Just to clarify I was on 3 monthly injections of ibandronate for 3 years before I had the Forsteo.
I also had 2 injections of ibandronate in 2017.
My blood tests over many years have shown my white blood cells to be low.
Maybe now with the help of your question I have found the answer as to why.
This has been investigated by rheumatologist and also neurologists and they have never been able to discover the cause.
