new member dad just started dacogen..what to expect?
Hello I am new here...my dad was just diagnosed with ACML with MDS MPN overlapse..he is a survivor of hodgkins and a stemcell transplant years ago...two months ago in was in the hospital with pneumonia and this is when they found out about this diagnosis. He has had multiple transfusions rbc and platelets and we'll as injections. He just started dacogen yesterday. Yesterday his hgb was 7.8 and platelets at 19..they still went ahead with starting the medication. How soon will it make his counts drop? What should I expect? I am so ovoverwhelmed and confused. Thank you
