@janetlen I'm in my first session. I had the chemo shot starting 2 weeks go, been off chemo (Vidaza ) about a week. From what I understand the pill Acyclovir is Anti fungle or anti virus, or some other anti infection. If I understand my doctor correctly, he wants me to keep taking these Anti pill to fight off any infection while my white blood cells are so low.
