After first cycle of Carbo/Gemcitabine chemo my neutrophils were too low for second dose l so I will now have to give myself Filgrastim (Neupogen) injections tomorrow, Tuesday and Wednesday to boost my white cell count. Any advice? I have been told to take some painkillers about half an hour before and that the bone pain should last about an hour. (Erika, I see from a previous post that you had these injections - What was your experience?)
Many thanks
Sharon
