For Helen about Telintra
 
Hi Helen,
I have read reports from members that have participated in Telintra trials. You could look at the archive. Here is a report from a study where 28 of 45 -62 %- of the patients had a hematological response:

My mother took place in this trial. She was on it for approxiamately 5 months. She did get some response in platelets and WBC, nothing too great. It is easy since it is pills and there really wasn't too many side effects. She did get a machine oil type body odor from the pills and nausea on third month. I read another member had the same thing happen.
