Congratulations on the PCR that is a good sign.   Rob   ----- Original Message ----- From: Dane Sent: Sunday, May 29, 2005 8:00 AM Subject: [CML] BMT plus 110 and doing fine 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.   dt New!
