Hi Greg,
So glad you're ok. I've been checking all day to hear from you.
Some information for those who are severely neutropenic. When Don's neuts hit 0.0, our oncologist gave me instructions which she wrote on his CBC. As I mentioned, she told us that if his fever hit 100 to go to the ER. Her instructions to me were to show them his CBC, tell them to get the on-call hematologist STAT, start the antibiotic she named (don't remember) STAT, and tell them to call her STAT. When we got to the ER I was totally in control and very calm. Had she not prepared me I would have been a nervous wreck. Also, when you go in the ER throwing the word "STAT" around, they think you know what you're doing
.
Take care Greg and keep us posted.
Sally
