Managing chemo's side-effects

Check out the article in yesterday's Vancouver Sun entitled "Managing chemo's side-effects," which includes a quote from me.

The article is about febrile neutropenia (FN), which is one of the most common side-effects of chemo. FN is the combination of a low white blood cell count 
and fever of 38.3 degrees or higher. 





Left untreated, it can be life-threatening.
