    Sandy,
    Happy Fourth to you, did Joe receive complete remission after his first heavy chemo or did he have the 2% blasts right after the first chemo. My husband went into complete remission after chemo and is now on Vidaza to stay there, any information would be helpful. Thanks, Gloria

    Hello Gloria,
    sorry it’s taken me awhile to get back to the forum but I’ve had some computer issues,
    Joe went through the induction round of chemo and after all the close calls with infections and other things that chemo does to ones system, we were told that he still had 2% blasts showing up and his dr. said he needed more chemo, the same type he had initially, and he never pulled through. you and your husband have had a great outcome, thats wonderful news !!! I don’t believe that vidaza was as well known as a maintnance drug then as it is now…
    (or atleast our dr. didn’t offer it)
