Beth>Re:Anemia Anyone? - from

[Guest guest]

Hi Beth.

I'm not home now, so can't give you textbook answers on what Folate

levels mean.

However, I can tell you that one doc... I think it was on...

told us this weekend that -----ohhh... now I can't remember it's

name... but the drug that helps chemo patients with anemia...

remember what the name is? It's on TV ads... Anyway, he said that

this medication could be beneficial to MSA patients.

I'll see about looking it up in my notes after I get home. Please

remind me (not that I forget ANYTHING! My mind is like a STEEL

TRAP... rusted shut :-)

I am not sure if someone has already answered this. But the drug that might

help anemia that was mentioned at the Chicago reference, I believe, is PROCRIT

Hello,

I thought I might help out since I had this in my files already.

God Bless,
