Unable To Complete all 12 Taxol Treatments

My last A/C treatment was on March 10, 2017. On March 24, I began my weekly 12 Taxol treatments (I also began receiving Herceptin weekly) . I was able to complete 4 consecutive treatments. By the 5th treatment, my white blood count was too low to be treated. I ended up having my 5th treatment the following week on April 28. That was my last Taxol/Herceptin treatment. The reason is because the following 3 weeks, my white blood count was too low to be treated (so basically is couldn't get treated on May 5, May 12, and May 19). My last doctor's appt. was May 23, and during this appt., my oncologist decided that I would no longer be receiving Taxol treatments, as she did not want to do any long term damage to my bone marrow, but I would continue to get Herceptin every 3 weeks for a year. I'm in total agreement with preserving my bone marrow, but I would like to know if anyone else's oncologist decided to stop treatment halfway through. It's concerning because I don't want the cancer to come back as a result of not finishing all my treatments.

did they offer you neupogene shots? I had to do these a few times and was able to complete my 12 taxol treatment

No I didn't miss any because my onc had me do the neupogene shots to bring up my WBC. I'm surprised your MO didn't mention this to you.
