Hello Marty, Marcie and Skip, along with all the rest,
So sorry to hear about your car acccident, Marcie! You truly did have your angel watching over you. Marty, still praying for your kidney to be donated....there's one out there for you, I just know it! Skip, good advice to those who might need the infusions about do they know how to treat shock....guess you can be thankful you are not in the hospital as it stands! Good news on my front - in three months on bosutinib (bosulif) at 100 mg, I have gone from 9.0 IS for the bcr/abl testing down to 1.70!!! I truly know this is unheard of in the treatment. I am one blessed person! I still deal with lack of energy and slight nausea once in a while, so got some medication for the nausea. My blood pressure was affected so now am on med for that....trying hard to get a handle on the diabetes numbers to get and stay as normal as possible. (What is normal for any of us???) May you all have a wonderful week as you concentrate on the positive instead of the negative. Hooray! I am also excited to meet David and Grace Greenburg, (greenie) coming up this month! Here's a thought: "If the people around you were dependent on your WORDS for nourishment, would they be dying of malnutrition?" 18's, Susan F.

The red cells went great but then I had a very bad reaction to the platelets. They had to stop the infusion have an investigation, before I could receive any more platelets, I ended up with just 1 platelet yes 1. One platelet is the same as having 10. The machine cannot tell the difference from 0 or 10. I did not think I was getting out of this one, but here I am feeling not to darned bad. My advice to anyone getting regular infusions (platelets, red cells) check to see if they are prepared for shock. Marty I know your having a hard time as well, my prayers are for all us who face this dragon every day.
