Pete, I am interested in how your Vidaza treatments are going. I keep close tabs on my blood counts with Vidaza. My platelets reach a low point 10-12 days following my seven days of treatments at about 50-60 and then increase to about 200-240 three weeks after treatment. It is very predictable every cycle. My RBCs remain constant at about 3.3. WBCs (between 2.0 and 3.2) and neutrophils (.9 and 2.1) bounce around with no seemingly relationship to anything. I have felt pretty good through most of this. I get my Vidaza treatments SubQ in my stomach.

How long do they plan on keeping you on Vidaza? They are stopping me at 12 cycles since I'm not showing any mutations for about the last 6 months.

I was surprised that the VA paid for my trip visits.
