Re: vidaza
My mother was diagnosed with high risk MDS last May 2014. At 78, her only option was Vidaza...and her doctor was not very optimistic. A year later, she continues to enjoy life and although she finds the treatment a bit challenging (she just feels a bit "off" for the latter part of her 7 day treatment...and since she's so active, she hates the time it takes away from her activities...). Quite honestly, I cannot believe how well she has tolerated her treatments so far....
a year ago, we were not expecting her to survive much more than a few months... So there is always hope! Everyone responds differently. During one of her first treatments, I met a gentleman who was diagnosed with the same ....and he was 3.5 yrs into vidaza and still doing well......
God bless and praying that you all find effective maintenance treatments.
