Hi Lisa, I received PCRU very quickly in 6 months too. I had enlarged spleen, and WBC of over 230,000. I think everyone reacts differently. And I also believe prayer helped me a lot. I had a lot of people and churches praying for me daily.

She reached CCR in September and her latest PCR showed that shehad reached PCRU. Words can never adequately describe my joy and Iwill forever be grateful to God. Her oncologist, however, feels that it is unlikely that someone couldreach PCRU this quickly. Does anyone out there have experience withthis? My thought is that since she is taking a very high dose ofGleevec (she only weighs 60 lbs), the drug might have been able toinduce a deeper and more rapid molecular response than is seen in thetypical CML patient. She was diagnosed very early, with no enlargedspleen, no blasts in her blood and a WBC of 30,000. I would appreciate some advice from all of you CML experts! --------------------------------- Yahoo!
