Vidaza
Hi Eileen,
I'd like it if you would keep in touch with me as well. I begin seeing a new oncologist next month - the one I've been with is closing her practice indefinitely. I've been told that I'm on vidaza for the long haul - however that will be. According to my oncologist, if you go off it for an extended period of time (more than one missed treatment cycle), it will lose it's potency and I'd have to try a new treatment. Have you been told anything like that? I may talk with the new oncologist about getting my meds through IV. Please know that you are in my thoughts.
Kathy
