My daughter is being treated for wegeners & has so far had 2 treatments of cyclophosphamide.
Her rheumatology nurse is talking of returning to school before October half term break all be it for a couple of short days but I am already worried about risk of infection.

I think this is probably something basic that should be discussed with the consultant rather than the rheumatology nurse.
It all depends on the white blood cell count. Your daughter is likely to be taking immune suppressing drugs for some time, so you need to know where you are.
