I am presently on Gemzar and Xeloda. While after 3 months of it, it has shrank my lung met tumors, I am getting very low white blood counts. I have to take Neupogen for a week before I can get my next treatment. The onc. nurse said, this is a very common side effect of Gemzar. It does a number on your bone marrow. I hope this info. helps.
