Birgitta,

Aren't low blood counts to be expected during chemotherapy? You are so much more knowledgeable about all of this and I really appreciate the article on Sapacitabine. When he was on Vidaza for those 6 cycles, his counts would go way down and then back up again. So I thought this drug would work the same way. I just wasn't prepared for all three lines to go down so far.
We'll see what next Wednesday brings.
As always, thanks for your input.
Linda
