Dosing and bloodcounts

I am in week 20 of pegintron/Riba treatment at .50 peg/week & 800mc of Rib/day, and taking neupogen once a week. I now weigh ~106 lbs. The treatments are getting harder to take, not easier, and now I'm getting more anemic, with a hemoglobin of 10.5. I am thinking of trying to get my dose reduced to .40. ANyone have an opinion or knowledge about this? Also, how low does your hemoglobin have to get to start on procrit? I am really dragging myself around these days. This weekends treatment took me out for close to 3 days, which is long, and I am really so tired. Any helpful suggestions out there ? Thanks.
