Vidaza dosage
I just started Vidaza this week. Oh fun.
I'm confused by the dosage. I have read on the forum frontwards and backwards. Wow overwhelming.
So far not I'm not to bad, but I am backed up, hopefully something start moving today. On my 3rd day of miralax. Red and sore at injection points and nausea comes and goes.
2 units of blood prior to treatment got me to 10 hgb from 6.9.
Anyway just concerned about dosage and my counts.
My wbc has been in the 300 to 800 range for almost 2 years.
Amazingly I almost never get sick, but now I guess it going to go lower.
My dosage 86.61 or 86. something. I seem to see 50 or 100.
We are trying 5 days only at first to see how I tolerate and how my counts do. They said they cut the dosage in half. Does this make sense?
Thanks so much for any replies!
