I was unable to received my last chemo treatment because of my WBC; I'm doing the healthy greens, fresh papaya and supplement, extra protein products; Is there anything else I can do; My doctor said I could not received the Neulasta, because it had 2b given after the first treatment (wasn't given because I recovered well); My CA125 is 3.4 now; Do I need the last chemo?

@pbprice I’m sure you are a little anxious about not receiving your last dose of chemo. The doctor said they can’t do it because the WBCs are too low. I’m glad you are eating well. Are you also being super careful to avoid infections especially with flu season starting? When will you be seeing the doctor next? You want to ask about the chemo and neulasta and get a good explanation. If the clinic has a portal for emails, you might try that also. Or call the triage nurse in the clinic and ask. Can you try one of these things?

@pbprice This is no doubt concerning for you, and might cause not just a little anxiety. We are not doctors here and cannot offer medical advice. I do suggest you contact your doctor and care team to ask this question, as they know your case the best. Would you please come back and let us know what they say? How are you feeling these days?
