Dear Anna,

You are right to recognise that the analysis of this sort of design is 
more complex than many other experiments, because it includes comparisons 
both within and between patients.  I have included a new section in the 
edgeR User's Guide based on your experiment that describes the analysis. 
This will appear in the official release of edgeR in a couple of days. 
In the meantime, see pages 31-33 of:

Best wishes
Gordon
