That's right you are not alone. Tomorrow 5/13/2013 I start Vidaza. 4 cycles. 7 days per 28 days. My Dx was 6 weeks ago. The reason they start asap is to keep the blast count from increasing. Also, for SCT, studies show that Vidaza or Dacogen treatment beforehand increases the survival rate (that's what my docs tell me). If a test was done 3 months ago, followed by another 3 months later, and the number of blasts increased that could be why. Its your right to ask the Dr's what's changed and any concerns you may have. Good Luck.
