Just though I should make myself welcome to this new chat by sharing my story and asking a few questions. My name is Tina, I was DX in March of 2004 with Blast crisis phase of CML. Possitive for the Phill. Chrom. Well last year in Oct. I became resistant to the Gleevec. We were discussing to have a Bone marrow Transplant in Feb. of this year. I found out in Jan that I was expecting a baby. Well here I am in April 6 months pregnant with a baby boy. It took me until feb. before I was seen by a doctor, by then I was already in my second trimester. Finding a good OB/GYN has been a real fight, no one wants to see me and now they have classified me as high risk. Yesterday I was denyed care b/c I couldnt pay for my visit out of pocket. Are there any federal programs, I mean anything that could pay for my doc's and everything else. I mean its hard enough trying to get someone to take my case let alone see me. As far as I know up until this point my baby is healthy, but no one has seen me long enough to run any tests, and I've had 2 ultrasounds since I've been pregnant. I'm thinking of moving to canada so I can get medical coverage.... lol. Thanks for all the advice, and I will keep everyone on here posted as my fun experince continues... Tina
