Ora,

Did you have the pain PRIOR to the Neulasta? Or how did you distinguish that it was from the Taxol?

I don't know that the steroid causes pain, I know the Neulasta can, and have read the the Taxanes do, but I've been unable to figure out if people that did NOT have the wbc or rbc builders also had the muscle/bone pain. (if not, this points more clearly to the wbc drugs)

Ruth has had only one TCH treatment, no pain at all, however her WBC are now low and they are talking Neulasta next time. She is borderline ANC, not super low so I'm wondering if we ar better off winging it w/o the Neulasta for the time being.

THX
