Praying that your treatments help you as much as they have my husband. A year ago, I didn't think he would live until Christmas. He didn't get better until the second or third round of Vidaza but it has been up hill since then. I just wish he didn't have congestive heart failure and emphysema. He is on a 28 day cycle getting the treatments for 5 days straight and then we go back every Monday for blood tests. If he has a drop in his counts, he is given Procrit. Last week his white count ws extremely low and they put off his Viadaza treatment. He goes back Tuesday and we hope his counts have risen.
He has a port and that makes getting his chemo much easier than being stuck each time we go for Vidaza.
God bless you and keep us posted.
