This is so encouraging. I am
On venetoclax snd vidaza. I just finished my first 5 days off the weekend and go back Monday and Tuesday. Then I continue on just the chemo pill and all the medications the put me on. I felt overwhelmed with all the pills I had to take. Did you get any itchiness. I am not sure if it is from the infusions or the new calcium pill they put me on. I hope I will be lucky enough to go into
Remission as well.

I wish you all the very best and how fortunate are we to have Lori volunteer with her experience to share!
I wanted to update on my journey. My hemoglobin and hemacrit numbers this week were in the NORMAL range for the first time since my AML diagnosis in March 2024!
Through many rounds of Dacogen and Ventclexta I am now down to 1/2 every 28-36 days. No side effects and I feel blessed and grateful for my team…looking forward to seeing my ANC, platelets, WBC and RBC eventually in the normal range. Weekly blood tests do continue as I elected not to have a BMT.
