Thanks Linda,
We thought Nicks count would go up too, but we have been having blood tests for the last week and they have only marginally gone up. Last week was 85 and today 91? We are keeping our fingers crossed it is going to keep getting up to 100.

Hi Kath, can't comment on the Temodal regime, but chemo Bruce had was
changed after the 2nd month due to low paletlets & neutrophils.
Only had two blood tests that came in low, waited 3 days and they were
back up within normal range to resume his chemo.
He always had more of a problem with neutrophils, ending up in hospital
for 4 days after the third month with a fever & infection.
