Hey Cheri!

An ANC count of 500 -- or 0.5 -- was the dividing line in my clinical trial for putting me on Cipro and implementing all the neutropenic precautions: no working in the garden, no kissing the pets, no salad bar down at Sizzler, no raw fruits or veggies -- all that stuff. You might want to see if your doc will get you some Cipro until your ANC goes back up.

Take care!

Greg
