Revlimid

Hi Vicki,
Prednisone dose is often 30mg/day initially - then it is tapered due to adverse long term effects. I asked my doctor if I could continue with 5mg/day because that drug can increase HGB together with Revlimid or Thalidomide in patients with other bone marrow cancers like Myelofibrosis and Myeloma.

Hope you will have a good response to Revlimid!
Kind regards
Birgitta-A
