Rose, Here's wishing your husband continued improvement. That is very encouraging indeed.

I had heard that RAEB-2 has much lower chances of remission and imminent BMT was one of the very few mechanisms available. Given my dad's age, it also appears that an allogenic transplant is the only BMT option he might have available.

However the results of Vidazo treatment on your husband is positive and gives us hope as well. Thanks for the message.

Are there any folks here undergoing chemotherapy who are also diabetic. I would like to hear any advise there is on this topic. Thanks.
