Shari, Call your primary doctor's office and get in. They always have emergency appts. available, you just have to "turn up the volume" and let them know how bad you are. I'm scared for you.

They should probably check any inflammatory markers, like rheumatoid factor, c-reactive protein (CRP) and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR). Sometimes CRP and ESR can be elevated when the white blood cell count looks fine, in case you have an infection of some kind.

Did they do a D-Dimer at the hospital? Did you get a copy of everything they did? If not, they should fax it over to your doctor's office.

How long have you been on the Cellcept? You should always look to drugs with weird symptoms. IVIG too.

I wish I could do more to help. You may need a few doctors to help figure this out. Someone HAS TO help you right away. Do NOT wait until after Christmas!!! Will be sending thoughts your way.

Annie
