I also had a history of low wbc counts going in
and I only got maybe three shots of
neupogen the entire treatment. I was a particularly severe, kind of worst case scenario patient.
I know you're really scared of the rescue drugs, and I know that treatment is scary. In my case, it was the reverse, I was terrified of the treatment drugs, the interferon (peg) shot specifically, and not the rescue drugs, because I was already ON one of the rescue drugs.
