I had Adriamycin too. I found that if I stayed on top of my side effects, I was OK. I actually made a med chart of my anti-nausea meds (yes I am a nurse) So I could keep up with them. Also helped me remember which ones I had taken, which one was next and how well they worked. It made me very tired! I didn't have an issue with my white count, but was on Neulasta for the duration.
I wish you and your mom the best of luck! Just keep asking questions. There are a wealth of answers here!
