This test showed 10.577% vs 10.183% in Dec. 2013. We had a great visit about if I were in a formal test group I would be told I have to take a med. Having worked with me since 2002 he is allowing me to continue with no treatment for another 3 months. My ONC noted that my history of slow growth of my mutated cells was a unique factor when compared to most CMLers, particularly those in test groups. Another factor was that my CBCs have never shown white cell counts that indicated a need for a BMB to due further investigation. I send my prayers all, but especially those battling new problems.
