Another Monday, another set of bloodwork numbers, this week not as encouraging.
Karen's white count is lower this week than last. It's about half the lower end of "normal." So they have her on a different white count booster, called Neupogen (the Neulasta they had been giving her is only covered by insurance during chemo and a pricey $6k otherwise). At least her red count is where it should be, so no red cell booster.
Disappointing results. Means bloodwork again next week, hopefully with better news.
