Bob's First Cycle
My husband is finishing his first cycle of Dacogen tomorrow. He has been very weak since Monday. He is undergoing this treatment for a few cycles, and if he responds then BMT. He says that if the weakness, queeziness and joint pain is all the side effects that this seems easier to take than the Vidaza. I will be interested to see how he rebounds in between. His Counts are dropping a bit, but not extreem. Platelets 37, neuts 1.0.
