treatment thus far has been vidaza, 7 days on, 3 weeks off, he has been handling it like a champ, still going to gym with me when he can. Like I mentioned, he gets a shot 1x during each cycle of aranesp. Dr said that the vidaza isnt doing its job, and they are going to change his treatment regiment up after the meeting we have with the university hospital. We have another apt with doc on tuesday, Im taking pops to the university tomorrow. He has had some nose and gum bleeding but platelet count has been decent. Blood transfusions are pretty regular now at 1.5-2 weeks apart. Blasts are pretty solid around 13 I believe, Not going up and not going down, he does transfusions at a count of 7, has been as low as three.
