Hi Hoosha,
Here's what Dr Druker said about my accelerated  phase.
 
You  need a mutation analysis and a change as soon as possible to dasatinib 
or  nilotinib. Would also see if your appointment at Moffitt can be moved  up.
 
Does  anyone know if Medicare pays for the mutation test?
Thanks,
Jeanie<3

Hi to all:

Hope all going well around everybody..

After 4  years of PCRU, I am positive for around 8 month.
I am going to do Mutation  analysis but my onc believe that it's not so
important. I am in 800 mg and  he said to me that after 3 month I
should do another QPCR and if it¢s still  rising I should switch to
Sprycel. He believes, in spite of BCR ABL  Mutation Analysis result,
sometimes Sprycel work for T315I or the other  Mutations. And it¢s
better that in every status, I try  Sprycel.


But I want to know more about the importance of this  test.

God Bless Everybody
Being  Happy
Hoosha
