Q: RA and low white blood count

I'm on Enbrel and also having problems with my neutrophil count (a type of white blood cell) which keeps bottoming out. I've been ill with infections constantly and have had to be isolated in the hospital for awhile as well when it was dangerously low.  There is a medication to bring the count up but it keeps going down again with no cause identified. I'm wondering if Enbrel is the cause. Does anyone else have this problem?  Do you take Enbrel as well? I'd appreciate hearing what others have experienced.
