Week after Chemo

Friday, Saturday, and Sunday Michael was extremely exhausted and didn’t really do anything. By Monday he started to try to get around. He is only able to do very little at a time or he gets real tired. We are still very concerned with his white blood counts.

By Friday morning, he started with the pain in his hips, ribs, and back. He did call the doctor. They do feel that this is a symptom from the Neulasta shot. Generally this side effect will be 3 – 4 days after the shot, but the doctor thinks since he stays in bed for the first few days when we get home that it will occur with Michael between the 7th and 8th day. These only lasted for a few days. By Sunday, he was feeling pretty good.
