Multiple Neupogen Injections

Dear Forum Members:

Has anyone had to take neupogen more than once weekly?

Can you expain for me how that works?

Over the past year I know I've seen some discussion of multiple neupogen injections, but would you
refresh me with your knowledge and experiences.

Thanks

Dear Rosebud,

I think Lala may be taking neupogen twice a week now. She's nineteen and probably at school right now but usually checks the board later on.

I took neupogen every other day for a couple of months. I was hospitalized with an absolute neutrophil count of 0. It is not unusual to need more especially if you have cirrhosis, like I do.
