Neulasta?

[Chelee]

I was given the sheet that explains how Neulasta works...and how often it should be given. It says you should have a Neulasta shot after each full chemo session.

So I was wondering why I did not recieve one after my first full chemo of Herceptin, Taxotere, and Carbpotin? My wbc dropped to 116 over a two week period before my doctor decided to give me the Neulasta.

I have read many posts on this board and others that seems to support that information sheet put out by Neulasta that it should be given after EACH full cycle of chemo.

Has everyone here been getting their Neulasta every time they get a full cycle of chemo? It would seem that would be the best way to do it to avoid the body's immune system to drop so low to pick up all and any infections.
