My white blood cells are normally low,especially during a flare but has anyone been told that their's we're also abnormal and "immature"? Never heard of immature blood cells before.

That means something is wrong, normally your bloodcels won't get into your bloodstream until they are mature...Meaning your blood cannot do well what it is supposed to do. Hope they can make it better soon.

If your cell count is too low your bone marrow is trying to work harder to compensate for the lack of cells for immunity and sometimes release the cells early, "immature cells" or "immature grans" are the terms used on the CBC results. I only know this because mine were so low they have me seeing a hematologist Who explained it.
