hi Dr Oana,My mother 86 years old has now pancytopenia (wbc
Hi, dear. I have gone through your question.  I can understand your concern. She has sudden onset pancytopenia. Many causes of pancytopenia are there.  Even viral infection can lead to sudden onset pancytopenia.  Maybe her megaloblastic anemia is responsible for pancytopenia, or she may have other cause.  Best thing to be done is gone for bone marrow examination once. It will clear the picture and all doubt. So go for it and then take treatment accordingly. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Wish you a very good health.
