I will be a PBSC donor for my Brother in 3 weeks. This will be the 2nd BMT that I have taken part in with him. The first time we did a bone marrow transplant. This time, the Dr. wants to do PBSC & I am told that I will need to take Neupogen for 5 days prior to transplant to stimulate my cells.

I have been reading the side effects of this drug & I am not feeling very comfortable about the drug. Is there anyone out there in "perfect health" that has taken this drug & what effects have been experienced?
