Hello all....Just got some great news from MDACC regarding my June 15 test results:chimerism: 100% donor cellsbcr-abl: ZERO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Looks like the second (high dose) DLI may be doing the trick.The GVHD is almost gone (currently just some irritation inside my mouth), and I am down to a very small dose of steroids to keep it in check. As a result, my energy level is slowly but surely getting back to normal.In addition, my onc just cut my Gleevec dosage in half from 800 to 400mgs a day, the first step towards getting off all meds.I am praying that these results prove to be durable as time goes on....my next test is scheduled for mid-August.I am also glad to know that Sprycel is now FDA approved! My onc says it will be the next line of treatment in the event of a relapse. In the meantime....I'll appreciate each day as it comes!Regards and prayersDane Tessler
