I just finished my first A/C two weeks ago and my neutrophil count going down to 700. My dr. told me that I am going to get shot in 3days, delay A/C chemo, need advice. I am so worry about it.

The shot is subcutaneous, it must be very painful. I saw that it has a lot of side effect including skin rash, etc.

Anyone passed this situation? Please advice me, I really need information about it. Thanks!

    Yes, that was Neulasta. I don't know why most people got the day after infusion. I only got it 20days after infusion. May be insurance matter. I had muscle and bone pain for 3-4days after that. Now is okay. I will get another infusion 10 days after shot, It will be soon. Thanks to all for sharing.
