So I had another bone marrow biopsy on wed. aug. 26th and we saw the leukemia doc on friday and the results are not what they expected and not what I was hoping for. It showed 23% blasts in the bone marrow, however I have 121 thousand platelets which is almost normal and my white cell count is coming up also so they don't know why the blasts are so high and still my counts are coming up. So he wants to wait this week to see how high my counts come before doing any treatment. We meet with him again friday to see what my counts are and talk about what to do next. He said he was gonna talk to his group about me cause he is not real sure what is going on they really expected this last treatment to put me into remission and don't know why my counts are coming up and the blasts are so high, yippie I get to be the difficult patient that all the doctors talk about. i asked if I could come to the meeting with his group just cause I wanted to listen to them talk about me as a case but again he said no. Man nobody will let me follow them for experience for med school. Anyway I am feeling really good. Mom was here for two weeks and is leaving tomorrow. It was great to have her here we went shopping and drove all over and never got lost. Woohoo! Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers I love you and will write again when we have more news.
with all my love,
Randi
