I have been trying to find contact information for Dr. J for some time now but just CANT get it for some reason (online I just can't find the RIGHT number).
I need a second opinion on whether I should do ANOTHER 30 weeks of treatment and my doctor advised me to go to Dr. J. Of course he's out on vacation now and I can't get him - when I saw you post down there I knew I had to ask.
Can you tell me what listing I can call in information or something so I can get an appt?
I am on week 36 and running out of time on this decision.
You are tremendously lucky to be going to him. I want to SO MUCH = and with my odd circumstances my doctor wants him to take over my treatment now.
Thanks so much.
(Sorry guys...I hate to use a thread but NEED to find this man once and for all I tell ya. The other "expert" looks good but he AINT DR JACOBSEN.

I can hardly believe it has been almost 24 weeks for you. I remember when you started and I wasn't going to start until a month later then it ended up 2 months later. Sure wish I started when you did, I would be almost done also.
As for what to do. Gosh, difficult decision! With your condition you could stop, but then it is only one more week and if it was me, I would just finish. And your HGB is up at 8. that is the highest I remember you having.
I do my 16th shot today, and sure wish I was done. This vomiting and nausea is just awful. My stomach does not like these meds.
Good luck in which way you go Mr. BB. I heard you are going to be around after treatment. That will be a great help to those coming on board.

Yes I'm a 2B and I've heard the same thing that if it doesn't work by week 22 it's not going to work by 24.
Sorry your having a rough time too. You and I stated together and are due to end on the same day. Will you go to the end or are you stopping at 23?

I'm planning on taking the last shot but not the last week of Riba.
Was it Popeye who used to say to Bluto, "It's all I can stand and I can't stand no more."

I am glad the doc has found a way for you to continue. The Procrit every 5 days has to help. Congrats on your success, whatever you do
