I, also, have low white blood cells, but no clumps. My last white blood cell count was 3.1. The low for average WBC's is 3.8. My RA doc thinks it is a result of taking immune suppressants for 36 years. I hope you can find something that will make it better for you.

Is your doctor sending you to a Hematologist? If NOT, I think you should pursue that line of investigation. Me, I NEVER give up getting answers, especially about our health. Hang in there and keep us informed. Maybe, people, if they do not have this, will in the future. As Gilda Radner said:"It's always something'". Chin up! Could be benign or not. I found this. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC87...

That is related to the treatment your taking for RA but no lab work says clumps in cells. Look your blood it’s divided up into red blood cells and white blood cells and there is further division to help with different cancers or infections that is basic. We all are taking treatment that has side effects. However the benefits outweigh the risks. So as long as the lab work is stable not getting any worse that is good.
