Hey Catherine!

My local doc uses Revlimid for his multiple myeloma folks and says it is pretty well tolerated. My platelets and neutrophils are high enough that neither he more Dr. Olnes feel that the very common neutropenia or thrombocytopenia would be an insurmountable problem.

Thanks much!

Greg
