Hi knocksonce,
I needed transfusions on 4 (2 units each time) out of the first 5 days of the very first cycle then another transfusion each week until the next cycle then on 3 out of the 5 days of the first week of the second cycle etc. Neuts dropped to 0.0
I was having transfusions (3 units) every two weeks before I started Vidaza.
The transfusion requirement very slowly improved but I only had 5 cycles due to other health issues, so I don't know if the numbers would have improved more or not.
All the best.
Regards
