Hello and Happy New Year to All. We had a nice quiet Christmas and I was happy knowing that the first PCR test after my November DLI showed a marked improvement in bcr/abl counts...down to 6.5 from 18. I just got the results from my next PCR taken a month later in December and it shows no change.
My onc says this is a good thing and we are waiting to see results from my next PCR due on the 31st of January. If the results are same or better, we do nothing. If the results are worse, then we do a second DLI. If the second DLI does not induce the immune response that is hoped for, then we move to BMS or AMN.
