Positive but unexpected CBC test result
Update.. My father completed 2 rounds of Vidaza. During the 1st round, his platelet count fell to 3,000 due to Vidaza, but then it bounced up to 22,000. During the 2nd round, they fell to 16,000 only to bounce up to 29,000 a week later. Three weeks after the 29,000 result, his platelet count jumped all the way up to 122,000. RBC, WBC and HGB are all up too.
The doctor decided to continue with Vidaza for at least 2-3 more rounds. I'm skeptical that Vidaza could have this type of impact after only 2 months. What do you guys think?
