Hi Jerri, I posted a similiar post a few days ago about low WBC and not being able to get the full dose of chemo. I know how you feel. It is very frustrating. For me, right when the Gemzar/Xeloda showed to be working for me, my WBC was been so low that almost every week the doctor has to adjust my dosage or put me on another regimen dose or just have me skip chemo. right now, I should be on a schedule of 2weeks on, l week off, but instead I have chemo every other week. So that the week I don't have chemo, I get 5 shots of Neupogen. I also get Aranesp, but so far, my reds have not been to bad. Some one suggested when I posted to drink a cup of beef broth every day. Guess what, I'm boiling my soup bones right now. I guess it can't hurt. I hate to keep taking Neupogen every week. I don't know if too much of that is good for us also. Well, let me know how you do or if you find something that works for you as I am in the same boat. I'll be praying for you. God bless you.
