Neulasta vs Neupogen

Hi all
My Dr mentioned something about Neulasta promoting AML as opposed to Neupogen.....anyone know anything about this? A little unsettling, as he gave me Neulasta twice already, post Vidaza.
This month I am back on Neupogen daily for a week.
Dr also mentioned the large hospital that treated me for 2 1/2 months last year won't return his calls... I think his experience is limited in MDS treatment...but he's the only game in town!
As always, any feedback is appreciated!
