I just wanted to let everyone know that I made my decision and I’m going through with a SCT.

Hello All I have had asthma all my life, but now have a compromised immune system due to Myeloma and a stem cell transplant which I had a while back. Like many of us, I developed a horrible chest infection at the start of December 24, and yes, I’m still getting over it.

(In Ireland we dont have access to our results) Had appointment today and I asked for more clarification on the "mild fibrosis" as its been bothering me, as they told me months ago that "it's not a matter of if you will need a stem cell transplant, it's a matter of when".

Hi All An update to what I would have described as a failed Stem Cell Transplant has actually been a part success- I don’t seem to have any sign of CLL but instead I am back to SLL status which is what I was initially diagnosed with 10 years ago.

He referred us to the Mayo Clinic for stem cell transplant, as it is the only chance for a cure. The transplant specialist at Mayo agreed with our local oncologist. They put together a plan for David to receive several cycles of a drug called vidaza.

I had decided prior to this to do a stem cell transplant, but now I’ve decided to reevaluate every 28 days after getting the FC MRD CLL Interpretation and Report. My Aberrant % total, MRD cells has dropped from .39 to .007 in 4 months.

He also did a peripheral bone stem cell transplant to help the bone growth.. hopefully it will work . As for the surgery recovery. I am doing remarkably well. Far better than I have expected in a long time . I have never been this good my legs have never been this good.
