Hi Amy, are you questioning the number of transfusions or the timing of them.

If I needed blood I would have it straight after the Vidaza and yes, I also had transfusions about every 2nd or 3rd day during the Vidaza cycle. On the first cycle I was transfused 4 out of 5 days the first week and then 3 days the next week. It really knocked my Hb around.

Regards
