Guest guest Posted May 28, 2006 Report Share Posted May 28, 2006 Hi to all of you, I haven't posted in a long while but still read your posts. My husband has been out of remission a little over a year with a white count of 18,000. Not bad but I suspect the disease is much more unpredictable the second time around. Am I right? had a successful stem cell transplant in 1999 which give him 6 yrs of good remission. Currently he had gamma globulin infusion to help him fight bronchitus. The 2 rounds of antibiotics didn't quite do it. His neuts are low and stil decreasing but not dangerously so.Any way he became very ill from the gamma globulin and needed three days of hospitalization. We were surprised since he had two other gamma globulin treatments without any side effects. His biggest complaint is still fatigue but he is still able to work and do most but not all that he used to. I really would appreciate hearing from anyone and everyone with experience or info on life out of remission. He doesn't need chemo at this stage. Thanks to all of you Marijeane, longtime list member who has been doing mostly lurking the past two yrs. --------------------------------- Blab-away for as little as 1¢/min.
