Hi John,
My Dr. said that Neumega for platelets was not good for MDS. Are you still taking Aranesp or Procrit? Sometimes they can help platelets in rare cases.

It does seem that it takes a few cycles for Vidaza to work and the counts to stabilize.

Hang in there and hopefully the platelets will get better.
