My father was recently diagnosed with RAEB2 multilineage with an increasing blast count. The most recent being 18% in the peripheral blood. He will be on Vidaza for 5 days every 4 weeks for 6 months to get his blast down so they can do a stem cell transplant. When he was originally diagnosed, the doctor said his cytogenetics were normal! Needless to say the doctor seemed a little puzzled and thinks there are a couple of things going on. With the cytogenetics being normal he said the risk is now intermediate (from very high) which is a relief. Has anyone experience a normal cytogenetic profile??? very odd
