Niki, The same happened to my hubby when he was
going through chemo...so they gave him a shot each week. The name of the shot
starts with a P, Pro-something-( maybe procit), it is advertised on tv in pill
form all the time.This medicine rebuilds red blood cells. Your mother should be
getting this from her chemo dr. ask for it!!!!! Why the dr. hasn't given it to
her already I don't understand... prayers to all my molor friends xo
Dean
Lillian...my hubby has his radio surgery, for his
brain tumor, on Jan. 3rd, (he's already had the 15 radiation for the same
tumor), Molors keep him in your prayers please, and then maybe this will be it
for awhile, and that he will start to recover some, from all this. His dr. told
us that after this he will send him for a pet scan.
my mother who has cancer in both lungs, went in
for a blood test today (her week off) and was told her blood count was 2.1 and
possible she won't receive chemo next week. we understand how it went
down, but the nurse did not offer any resolution to the problem. do we
just wait until the count comes back up? is there anything to help it
along? thank you
