After Vidaza failure

Hi Suzanne,
Your mother's platelet count is quite good and hopefully her WBC is higher when she gets Neupogen. How often does she get Neupogen injections?

A ferritin value of 2066 is really not very high but I understand that you worry because your mother is short of breath. How is her heart functioning? Perhaps she needs heart drugs? A HGB of 8,5 is quite high but of cause some patients feel that and get tired.

Is your mother getting treatment for Lymphoma? Before discussing Dacogen, the new histone deacetylase inhibitors like Epival and Zolinza or stronger drugs like Daunorubicin or Ara-C we have to know that.
Kind regards
Birgitta-A
