Why not have Linda try Leukine instead of Neupogen? Leukine also boosts WBC but it also boosts the dendrites (the WBC that "codes" for foreign cells/cancer and then rushes to the lymph nodes so that killer T cells can be made specifically against that "thing"). Basically, it is like self vaccination. I think they are also using Leukine in the vaccination trials.
Leukine is also known as GM-CSF. Just a thought. I personally used Leukine instead of Neulasta as my WBC booster during dense dose chemo. If you want any other info, Berlex Labs has a website just on Leukine.
Best regards
