Great to here your results.

What was your hemoglobin start point, and did you reach this level new elevated level with transfusions PLUS your medication ?

The highest I have gotten has been 9.0 with transfusions.

Revlimid and Reboslyl ( spelling) both failed to raise my hemoglobin and I am totally dependent on transfusions.

I will look up your drug info.

Thank you.

@montauk Hi. My hemoglobin hovered between 10.0 and 10.6 when I was first diagnosed. It dropped to 9.3 and my Oncologist started me on the injections. The last time I had my blood work done, my hemoglobin was 10.6 so I didn't get the injection.I have not had a blood transfusion. My doctor mentioned that he would infuse iron if needed. I am tired most of the time and take lots of naps.
