It seems that there is no typical reaction to Vidaza treatment. Generally the accepted reaction is for blood counts to go down for about the first four cycles and then start getting better, but this varies greatly from person to person. My situation was that all of my blood counts got better, but blasts have stayed about the same (after 5 cycles).

There is a lot of "guesswork" by everyone it seems when deciding how to continue with Vidaza. I would think that there would be a continuation of the Vidaza treatment as long as the numbers improve. What kind of problems were there in tolerating the Vidaza?
