Is Breo Ellipta safe to use with if one has permanent chronic neutropenia (low white blood cell count less than 500) The Breo Ellipta's drug profile on the web (www.drugs.com) says to "discuss this with your doctor". Unfortunately here in British Columbia there is a shortage of doctors so an answer is proving a challenge. Does anyone have a similar condition?
