Hi @jamielynn777, it’s so good to see a note from you this morning! Congratulations on your new Re-Birthday! 💞
The next couple of weeks are generally the, shall I say, least pleasant? Once those newly infused stem cells engraft into your marrow in an another week or so, you should feeling progressively better and stronger. I hope your back pain eases soon. Do you know what’s causing it?

Hey @loribmt nice to hear from you! yes it’s from the Neupogen shot to increase the WBC count. I’ve had the shots before with 0 neutrophils and there is some lower back pain but I guess having undergone the bmt it’s just way more painful. I just had my 2nd shot today so fingers crossed it settles down.

Honestly feeling so grateful to have this opportunity that it makes it all worth it!
