Hi Helen,

John is currently on xjade and his liver and kidneys are doing fine. With that said though, John is not on a full dose. He started with 500 mg and is now up to 750 mg. We did this because many of the side effects are dose related and John is pretty sensitive to meds after his treatment. He is no longer transfusion dependent so he can afford to be on a lower dose and have still be effective.
