Dear Melody, I am so very sorry that you may have progressed to extramedullary blast crisis. The doctors do need to find blast cells in your lymph nodes to diagnose you extramedullary blast. Are there blasts in your blood as well? This kind of disease is similar to acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) if there are blasts in the blood and doctors will probably treat your with ALL chemo drugs to bring you back to chronic phase before transplant. I wish you all the very best for a smooth transplant journey. Transplant is a therapy option in CML and the best one currently for anyone in blast crisis. Please let us know how everything goes. Stay positive, dear Melody, you will beat this.
Kind Regards, Anjana caregiver to Roy --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ [CMLHope] A support group of http://cmlhope.com ------------------------------------------------- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CMLHope" group.
