Well, I'm kind of "starving" in that I haven't eaten or had liquid nourishment for over two weeks and it hasn't helped my counts at all. In fact they continue to drop. The neuts are dropping slower than my HB but they are definitely on the decline. I'm now down to 44kgs. My platelets are the only cell line to have increased.
I have been fasting on average two to three days a week before my current "starvation" episode (due to feeding tube failure and requiring a procedure to place a new one).
As for infections...have had two bouts of pseudomonas and one chest infection in the last four months.
