LOW WHITE CELL COUNT

White Blood Cells are very important. These are the infection fighting cells. A common cold can be very serious with Low WBCell counts. Neulasta for Whites and Aranesp for Red Blood Cell Counts. Reds are energy cells. this is normal and treatable.

FWIW I had the same problem and, like Cindy, I took Neupogen until they could restart my chemo. Coincidentally, I was also taking Epogen on alternate weeks for my red cell count. It's been over three years now and I still take Epogen every three weeks but my white counts are now okay.

I know it's tough but hang in there.

Give your Sis my best wishes.
