Guest guest Posted December 13, 2006 Report Posted December 13, 2006 Hi Shalyn, Over the last few months I have had real problems with my neutrophils and other counts. My doctor told me I shouldn¹t go back on Gleevec until my neutrophils were above 1.0. I have been under that for many weeks usually between .3 and .8 I am really hoping my counts will go back up so I can back on my meds. Cam On 12/12/06 1:18 PM, " shalyn@...

Guest guest Posted December 13, 2006 Report Posted December 13, 2006 Hi Tracey, He won¹t let me go back on because my platelets are too low‹usually between 7-10. Also what is MDS? I am not familiar with that acronym. Thanks for your help and advice.
