Hi Wherenext,
Yes, many specialists recommend a trial if Vidaza isn't working - the patients counts can decrease quite fast otherwise. Very good that you have contacted the Mayo Clinic in Scottsdale - one of the top clinics in the world for blood cancer patients.

Your mother's platelets are still very good but the neutrophils too low as you are aware of - look out for infections!

You know when the neutrophils are low our own bacteria, virus, fungi etcetera (that we always have in mouth, throat and so on) can start to attack us.
Kind regards
