Cytoxan as an oral single agent

[Guest guest]

I can't remember seeing anyone mention that they have been treated

with cytoxan orally to reduce a high white count. The high white count

along with a high percentage of lymphs are my only out of line

numbers. The absolute count is 86K. When I began treatment with RF in

early 2005 my white count was much higher at 308K.

But because my count increased from 65K to 86K in the last three

months while at the same time my PLTs dropped from 184 to 162, it was

suggested that I begin this treatment. I was told I would be on this

low dose cytoxan for up to a year. I am wondering if this treatment is

something new being tried although I know cytoxan has been around for

a long time.

Dr. Furman, if you see this, would you be familiar with this cytoxan

treatment? Thanks for all the time you give here.
