I think I am the 1st (or one of the 1st) patients starting. I've heard a lot of good things about this potential combo and hope that it will get me back into remission. Its frustrating to go from PCRU to a BMB with 20 pos metaphases (as well as my recent wbc of 17.4 and platlets of 1.4 mil)! What a roller coaster ride this is. My dr still keeps telling me that a BMT is probably in my near future, but I am determined to knock this thing once and for all with drugs, especially with these newer promising ones... I have never done a trial before and was surprised at how strict everything is (3 pages of eligibility requirements!) I spent all day Friday doing testing (ekg, etc) to confirm eligibility... My bad BMB results was the final straw in making me eligible! Wish me luck at I eRADicate these @[EMAIL PROTECTED] once and for all!!! > -karen in MA ------------------------ Yahoo!
