No, I don't think my normal cytogenetics would have changed anything had my blasts not decreased. A drop in blasts is very rare. My bone marrow transplant specialist had the BMB results checked by three other specialists as he couldn't believe it. Blasts seemed to be the most the significant factor at the time. I was preparing for transplant and my older brother was compatible so it was all systems go until the blasts dropped.
