Her ANC was low before starting the leukine. It was below the 500 level and I had to keep her out of the "public". We ran out of the meds a week ago and missed only a couple days and her ANC dropped to almost 500 that quickly. I think we were without it for like 3 days. My sister will become the primary care giver when she moves and I'm eager to see what the new dr says.

I looked up the transplant dr at the new hospital and he does lots of his research on matched unrelated donor transplants. The gives me alot of hope since that is what we are going to have to do if they feel it's necessary.
