Transplant on hold
We got the results of Barry's bmb this week. The blasts are now between 15 - 20%. So, the transplant is on hold. My guess is they will bring out the big dogs now - azasatine (sp) or decitabine. We are waiting to hear if he will have a weeks worth of treatment and check again or if he will go thru a few regular cycles. He has been on Revlimid. This was not the news we wanted to hear, but I know others have had to face similar roadblocks. We pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off, and hit the road again.
