Myelosuppression is when chemotherapy weakens your bone marrow, and febrile neutropenia is the dangerous fever that comes when your white cell count crashes. G-CSF injections can help the marrow recover faster. But in my hospital, we must save it for the most critical cases, not give it routinely. I see this every day, rationing vials like precious water, because the budget is tight and the line of patients is long.
