roger, how did your first day of your cycle go? Henry's was good. He is doing so good. His counts are all up and the doctor said that we would go with the Vidaza for as long as it worked. He has not had a transfusion in 3 months. Praise the Lord! We are talking about taking a trip between cycles.
His next will be Dec 4. He is doing so good that the doctor said that he could come in every two weeks for lab work and to see her. She is as happy as we are with his results. Her office is filled with really upbeat, friendly. and caring people. Always a smile and a hug for the patients and their spouses.
Do you have a port to get your Vidaza? Henry was having so many transfusions at the first of diagnosis that they put a port in. It is a life saver for him. He hates needles. Another good news I want to share, our family doctor said that he didn't have to stick his finger to check his blood sugar because he had lost weight and was exercising he no longer had diabetes.
Hope you have good news on your end.
ann
