My husband was on Reblozyl when first diagnosed MDS . It only worked for him for about 6 months . Then doctor switched him over to Vidaza chemo . He had 19 cycles and now chemo seems to be less effective .
Has anyone tried Vidaza plus some other drugs to get back to good blood counts ?
Can you share your experiences besides being on blood transfusion support ?
Husband is 83 years old , always been healthy until MDS hit him 2 years ago

I’ve been diagnosed for 4 years now. They started Retacrit injections for first 2 years then it became ineffective. They started reblozyl injections every weeks since. I have not yet needed transfusions.

Every 3 weeks
