Dear Qtk98:
I am curious why you went with a transplant two times instead of gleevec? or did you use gleevec or sprycel? I have been without gleevec for over four years now and I need testing again to see how advanced the amount of cells have gotten in my system. Last October they were over 1.0 on the log reduction thing....I risk a brain bleed with any CML medication, so have not gotten back on, against the doc's wishes. Thanks for any further information.

I had the non-myloablative transplants, which means the conditioning chemo used before each transplant was not as harsh as a full blown transplant. I have been told by a recent 2nd opinion doctor that I needed a full blown transplant from day one because the amount of CML cells in my marrow prior to transplant supported that a mini-transplant would not work. I am currently seeking a 3rd transplant, which is probably my last shot at transplant, so I need to be sure this is done right. I hope this information helps you and good luck with your kidney transplants. -- [CMLHope] A support group of http://cmlhope.com ------------------------------------------------- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CMLHope" group.
