Thank you. That information parallels the glide path that I am on at this time. I just finished my 4th cycle of Vidaza and now getting prospective donors lined up. My platelets, RBC and hemoglobin have responded well. The WBC and neutrophils have been lagging thus far.

Hi bailie,
Very positive that you already responded! Hope your WBC will increase too.
