    P.S. I once wound up with a severe abdominal infection in hospital. I was under aware of the problem. Fortunately someone was and I woke up in hospital eventually to fully recover.

    Wow. I am so lucky. My docters recommend I return to shooting up with neupogen, but in spite of a critically low neutrophil count I have not shown signs of infection. One IMPORTANT comment: In a post above a writer said something to the effect of “I must be ok, as I don’t have a fever.”. Watch out. It is possible to get an infection an have no normal signs of disease. When your immune system is disfuctional, be aware the usual signs of infection may not show up.
