It’s not that unusual to have some delays in chemotherapy treatments. Hopefully your blood counts will rebound and you will get the go ahead with your next cycle soon.

I had low blood counts and needed transfusion twice. It’s not uncommon. Actually felt great after them - a real boost!

I am on cycle 5 of 6 of weekly and ended up in the ER because of low blood counts. Had 1 bag of blood on Friday and going for 2 more today. Missed 2 chemo treatments. Hoping this pcks me up!
