Question Is Remission Possible
My last biopsy showed I had monosomy 7 in 10 out of the 20 cells analyzed as the only cytogenetic abnormality. He was suggesting a stem cell transplant which I agreed to. At that time my blood counts were:
WBC = 1.9
Hb = 10.6
Platelets = 40

My counts (checked yesterday) have gone up to:

WBC = 2.7
Hb = 12.4
Platelets = 57

Is there such a thing a spontaneous remission? I am wondering if I should proceed with the transplant.

Any ideas???

Thanks
