Faye, that's a common side effect of Vidaza. I commonly had neuts of zero while on Vidaza. Luckily, although I almost always got a fever, I was able to be managed on IV antibiotics through a pump that I was sent home with. This happened every cycle for the entire six months I was on it and my haem actually increased my dose from 70mgs to 140mgs when it wasn't helping my RBC to improve. I think all haems work and think differently. By the way, I was also started on Vit D3 due to low blood levels but despite years of replacement my blood levels have never risen to anywhere near normal values. It seems as if a lot of MDS patients have Vit D issues.
