Beverly,

Bone pain is one of the potential side effects of Neulasta and other WBC stimulating factors. I only had 2 injections back in November 2015 and experienced minor bone pain and achiness for a couple of days.

From what I understand, it is not always present and should resolve within about a week. It may be dose dependent, and then of course, there are always a few people who just don't respond very well to it. I am hoping that this is only a short-term adjustment to the drug for your husband.

Dan
