You know that Roberta Roberts had secondary MDS after breastca like your mother and got a SCT with positive result this far.
Kind regards

Hi Birgitta - Thanks for sharing Roberta Roberts info. I will connect with her to learn about her experiences.

Mom's CBC after 15 days of the last of the 7 injections of Vidaza still show platelets of only 4000K with no sign of any increase. Has anyone else experienced such low platelet counts with Vidaza even after 15 days. The only positive is that her WBC went up to 1900.

Appreciate if anyone can add/share their experience with such dangerously low platelets even after 15 days.
