Guest guest Posted March 21, 2009 Report Share Posted March 21, 2009 Good Afternoon All Had my 3 monthly appointment this week I am still PCRU but even better than that result is the BCR is now 0.0 as well Normally I am PCRU since late last year the BCR had results such as a negative 12, then negative 11 and then a negative 10 and this weeks result BCR was a 0.0 Specialist could not believe it - even in the best of outcomes this is a great outcome - he was a pretty happy man I asked if I could reduce dosage due to skin rashes and bleeds etc fragile skin etc - looked at me like I had three heads and said NO WAY - we are on a winner and not playing around with it - we will manage all side effects - hope he is right. Even though PCRU my general chemistry is going down with all other levels lower than they were the test before - so medico will wait and see what the next results are. I have to be careful that I do not get infections - neut levels low again. Medicos excitement was infectious so thought I would share. I did not realise that BCR results were also important and not just the BCR/abl together Sue (Aussie) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
