Hi everyone,
My dad just had his first round of chemo with AIM (Adriamycin, Ifosfamide and Mensa) a week ago for stage 4 angiosarcoma.
In a routine 1-week follow up today, they found that he had a 103 degree fever. and that his white blood cell count was at 200.
They are giving him Cefepime on the assumption he has an infection.
I was wondering if anyone had any idea how I can help him boost his white blood cell count, or anything important I should be asking his Dr? He had a Neulasta injection a week ago after the chemo ended but the Dr. said we have to wait another week for the next one.
Thanks,
Lauren
