low white cells
The problem is I am on a max dose of 200g per day rather then the 400g because my white blood cells count has again dropped and I am having to have three jabs per week of
filgrastim
(Zaria)to boost my white cells. This is my third booster session.

2nd chemo cycle delayed - Neutrophils - Grastofil (Filgrastim)
. ----- How effective is Grastofil (
Filgrastim
) at supporting recovery of white blood cell counts? What does this portend for my likelihood to complete 6 cycles on schedule?

Injections after Caelyx
I’ve been told I done need to inject
Filgrastim
. I asked the chemo nurse to check and she said no injections. Has anyone else had Caelyx with no
filgrastim
afterwards? Thank you. Gill X

Why do they not prescribe Grastofil (filgrastim) during chemotherapy
When I started 6 rounds of chemotherapy in 2017 I was not aware of the drug
filgrastim
. During my second infusion I had complications due to a very high fever and was hospitalized for 5 days. I was given intravenous full spectrum antibiotics every 4 hours for the 5days.

bloods walloped by severe gastrointestinal infection, anyone?
But my white blood cell count has plummeted to the point hospital has put me under lockdown, and went even lower after 3
filgrastim
injections although haematology say sometimes their effect is delayed. Plus,my platelets are low and have been told to return to hospital at any odd symptoms.

Bronchitis, hospitalization and pancytopenia
The only part i believe worked was the
filgrastim
shot. Has anyone else had a similar experience and how did you get rid of the illness? Thanks!

Carbo /Caelyx
I have been given 5
Filgrastim
to inject myself with, the first being today on day 3, these are to make more white blood cells from the bone marrow, so that is interesting,hopfully they will do the business. Yesterday we walked and i felt quite good really.

Neutrophils have bottomed out.
Edit: My specialist put me on
Filgrastim
and is giving it two weeks for the neuts to come back up and we will revisit at that time.

Filgrastim
I think
Filgrastim
contains human growth hormone and I've had 8 injections of it after each chemo. Could it actually make cancer worse? Does anyone know? Candy x

FET - why?! 8dp5dt
Plus I had
filgrastim
3 days before transfer to help it stick and also the intralipid drip on the day of transfer. Also had the endo scratch last month, that is supposed to increase chances. How has none of this worked? I’m so exhausted and shattered about it.

A&E and so on
I had to explain re
filgrastim
pre-emptive strike that my cancer team has as its protocol. I wasn't low in white cells so now, after the injections, they are artificially high. But I don't know the numbers.

Plummeting leukocytes
With the treatment, leuckocytes went down to about 2500 but I balance that with Hizentra, every 2 weeks and the occasional shot of
Filgrastim
.

chemo Cycle 4
Restarted Chemo after surgery this week, with Cabo, Taxol and Avastin followed by
filgrastim
injection 24 hours later. Chemo session 8 hours so a long day on my own with the nurses and FaceTime etc but we coped very well considering. Just waiting for side effects to kick in (if any).

If you want to learn about CLL text or video
Your specialist may prescribe Granulocyte - Colony Stimulating Factor (G-CSF) injections (Neulasta, Neupogen,
Filgrastim
, Zarzio, etc). These are injected into the subcutaneous stomach skin via a very fine needle and boost neutrophil production.

Neutrophils update
I am having
filgrastim
injections over the weekend then a blood test on Monday. I really don't understand as I haven't had chemo since June. So I still don't know if I'm going to Turkey next week or not. I'm so frustrated. Rant over. Sending everyone lots of love Sian xxxx

This cycle is over!!!
I saw my oncologist today and my neutrophils have risen a bit since last week after the 4
filgrastim
injections. My onc does not think that they will recover in time for my holiday in 3 weeks time if I have chemo tomorrow.
