Hi David,

I had never researched the statement that the ER doc made to me about neutropenic fevers, i.e. that the neutropenia might be the cause in and of itself, but when I just now tried to find any reference to that...most refer to an "unknown infection" and the body being incapable of producing the normal response (except fever) which is an elevated white count. So, I think I may have mispoken unless someone can find information to the contrary. Like I said, Bill perked up so quickly after his hospital stay and the last three radiation treatments that I have to believe that we either had a miracle here or his response was due to intervention with antibiotics and IV fluids.

Where is Charm and all his wonderful research when we need him?

Deb (Bill says Hi back!)
