Since 2010 I have been treated with Thalodomide + Prednisone with positive effect.

Your husband has aa very low white blood cell count. The most important of the white blood cells are the neutrophils (ANC) - when ANC is less than 1.5 he has to look out for infections that will decrease all counts.

Hope your husband is feeling OK!
Kind regards
