Thank you Neil!!

I really appreciate the advice and information!

Today we a consultation with the doctor today. I could not feel anymore confident in the care he is receiving. The Hospital and Staff seem to be caring and extremely knowledgeable.
(Juravinski Hospital)

Today he had the usual blood test and a Bone marrow biopsy.
The doctor went through the last blood test and mentioned that his hemoglobin, platelets and white counts were pretty stable and only dropped slightly. Tomorrow he is having platelets and hemoglobin and a pick inserted.

The doctor did the bone marrow biopsy to check for chromosomal changes.

He also mentioned that he was leaning towards Vidaza as treatment at the moment.

Thanks again for the help, just being able to write about it seems to relieve some of the stress and constant thought of what is happening.
