I have had two shots of Neulasta. There were no side effects at all after the first. Thus I was not prepared for the extreme tenderness, soreness and achiness from my waist up after the 2nd. Even my face hurt. It lasted 36 to 48 hours then was gone. My white blood count does go up so it is doing it's job. Have to wonder what will happen next time after injection 3.

I have had five injections of Neulasta in conjunction with chemo therapy. The only side effect I notice is one that is not listed. About 12 hours after the injection I develop a headache, low grade fever, and very tender glands. This lasts 48 hours and eases away. It does improve my counts.

My white count was 1.3 and the Neulasta injection raised it
in one week to 13. Range is 3.5-11. It didn't seem to affect
my other counts. I feel bloated. Not sure if it is a side affect.
I have a myeloid leukemia called APL. I still don't have
any energy.
