Neulasta Question

Does anyone know if Neulasta can suddenly stop working? My husband has been getting an injection every two weeks for the last sixteen months and has always experienced a pretty good bump in his WBC and neutrophils. After last Tuesday's shot, however, his WBC only went from 0.8 to 0.9, and his neutrophils dropped from 0.3 to 0.2. I wasn't able to go to his appointment on Tuesday and on Friday questioned whether he had actually received the shot. The nurse assured me that he had. What could be going on?
