Delays in Chemo affect outcomes

Delays in receiving chemotherapy affect cure rates/mortality outcomes. Last week was my first delay. It was a one week delay caused by my stint in hospital. The ozzie registrar - David J - did not seem to think it will matter but with more delays....you guessed it, outcomes are affected he said. The most common cause of these delays are low white blood cells. And with progressive rounds of treatment the wbcs plummet.
