Sept 2009 I started to take Exjade.
I feel fine thank you. I started to take Revlimid 5 mg during 21 of 28 days 2013-07-18. 2013-09-16 the dose was increased to 5 mg/day. I still needed txs every third week so 2013-10-15 the dose was increased to 10 mg 21 of 28 days. Now I haven't needed any txs since 2013-11-21 and my HGB is 110.
Merry Christmas to you too  !
Kind regards
