For the first time in 9 months my fathers WBC is back in the normal range!!! It's 2.8, up from .06 about 3 months ago. He has only needed 3 transfusions in the last 6 weeks, which is incredible. He had achey bones for the first 3 weeks after starting neupogen and luspatercept, but he doesn't seem to be having any other side effects that he can detect. We are pleased with the results so far
