I have been in Dacogen MDS treatment for three months. 5 IV days followed by 3 weeks off. The Dacogen attacked my WBC and I have requied three RBC transfusion's (3 units, 2 units and 2 units. these transfusion were about 2 weeks apart, beacuse of a low HGB. I have now gone several weeks without a transfuion and my HGB is rising unassisted. I am regaining strength and feeling much better. I belive that Dacogen will continue to be effective in my case.

I have been taking this drug since first diagnosed with myleodysplasia. Have continued for 23 months now and blood counts are completely within normal limits; however, white counts fluctuate a bit below normal.

I have been on Dacogen treatment 19 months now. It seems to be working, my blood counts are finally in the safer range, but I developed a slight increase in blood sugar levels and may need to begin medication for diabetes.
