Response to Revlimid
Great news Kirby.
After three months of normal Hb, David's reds cell count has slowly been drifting down. He is booked for a Tx on Friday becuase it would be hard to organise before the new year. He is disappointed but the Drs say the Revlimid is still working if the time between Txs increases. Since the last was July 23 we are greatful for the respite.
The last BMB in Oct showed only normal cells but the 5q- was still there. the next is in Feb so we shall wait and see. You do a lot of that with MDS.
Enjoy the Christmas season
Helen
