I get the neulasta shot. I call it the new nasty shot. It really makes my bones and jaw hurts, gives me a pounding headache. DR told me to take ativan and oxicodone for 3 days and try to sleep it off. And...get someone to drive me to hospital for hydration. Hydration helps everything. I like being able to blink my eyes! Neulasta sometimes gives me a quick wrap around pain, like someone is putting a heavy rock on my chest while squeezing my lower ribs very hard.
I need the shot because my WBC count plummets. But I usually get chemo every 3 weeks because so does my platlets count and there is nothing they can do about that.
And almost every chemo treatment, I get a yeast infection despite rinsing my mouth faithfully with that baking soda/salt mixture. It goes through my whole system.
BUT...I am through 7 of the 12 treatments!
