My husband had Rituxan after transplant for a reactivation of the EBV and I've read about using Rituxin for some GVHD problems. Wishing these treatments resolve some of these issues for you. His doctor did attribute the lower WBC to Rituxin, then again not everyone has this side effect and he was only a few months from transplant. I'm sure they will keep a close watch on your numbers ... positive thoughts coming your way.
