BMT +110
Been back home now for over a week and settling
back into it nicely. We've had a real heat wave down here so I have been
laying low and trying not to get my CVC dressing all sweaty.
I did get some initial test results back from the
biopsy and blood tests I took before leaving Houston on the 19th.
My peripheral blood pcr came back to 1.2 from a
5.6! This is a good sign that either the Gleevec, my immune system or both
are fighting the residual levels of cancer cells.
I will be back in Houston on June 2 for the other
test results and to receive any change in meds. I imagine they will reduce
my tacrolimus and start slowly weaning me off it. I also hope to have this
CVC yanked out then too!
I am very encouraged by these intial peripheral
blood PCR results.
Health wise, I feel great. Lot's of energy
and no outward sign of GVHD. My gut is a mess...probably the massive doses
of Magnesium, though.
Full report will be forthwith upon my return from
Houston.
Regards and Prayers.
