CMML to AML in 3 months

My Biopsy in August showed blasts at 8%, same as they were in June. So, a few days before admission to OHSU for a SCT they did another biopsy and blasts are now 23%. Docs were shocked. I'm shocked.

So, today I was admitted to do a 7+3 chemo protocol that requires me being in the hospital for 28 days. This is so I can be well enough for the SCT in about 5-6 weeks. Really not good news but I'm rolling with it and feel at peace with the turn of events. They will retest my marrow in 2 weeks and more chemo is blasts aren't blasted out of there.

Thanks to all for your well wishes and love,

JOHN
