Hi Halo - I understand that Vidaza often makes blood counts drop before they go higher - perhaps the reason your Dad's numbers aren't showing improvement after a transfusion is due to the transfusion masking a drop in his own Hg production caused by the drug. Good that his other numbers are up - and 9.1 isn't alarmingly low, although your Dad will probably feel fatigued - Best - Paul
