Re: Worried
I would think part of the strategy would be to help build up your white counts. Based on my onc there was nothing I could do to nutritionally support the building of white blood cells but based on others input they suggested upping the protein (which of course also puts stress on your kidneys unless you make sure you dring enough). I'm not sure if you are dealing with diarreah or not. If you are I would assume "flushing" the system should not be an issue though again drinking enough fluid would be even more imparative. Sorry, can't be more specific than that since I haven't had a bout with this (yet) but that would be my starting strategy. Also yoghurts with "live" cultures. I'll keep my eye/ear out. Hang in there!
