Re: Post taxotere blood results-advice please
My WBC dropped very low from my very first tx of taxotere. Routinely got the neupogen shots. I don't believe it took very long after the last (6th) tx of taxotere for it to get back to normal.
Could the joint pain be from the shots to up the WBC? It is not uncommon to get discomfort from the Neupogen. I got it once and Advil took care of it nicely.
