Hi! I have not received anything different to do for myself while having neutropenia! I’ve still been living my normal life even without a mask! And I only had Covid once last year in January. I’ve been great. I just make sure to take my Neupogen injection and I’m good! I also do take zinc every now and then if I start to not feel well and that usually does the trick also. And my family (who doesn’t have neutropenia) & I take EmergenC packets that we put in our water at least once a week. But that’s not just because I have neutropenia.

thank you for your response! Sound like you’re doing well! Hate to hear you had COVID but I’m glad you’re doing well! Unfortunately I had to stop taking neupogen because it was causing anemia and platelets issues 😢 but since I’ve stopped my counts are back to normal minus the ANC count. But other than that.. I feel great!!! Haven’t caught COVID🙏🏾🙏🏾

Hey! For me personally, I was told to wear a mask even if it’s not mandated, as well as get boostered when applicable! Another possible for me when I had Covid was to get IV antibodies (only in severe cases) hope this helps
