BamBam if your a regular person your not supposed to have any blasts in the blood....Going ron 4% to 33% is an indicator that treatment may not be effective anymore, have them do a differential every week for 6 weeks, if your on a 28 day cycle of treatment you can see whats going on, or ask for another BMB or better yet a FISH Test, that will determine the best route for tratment.....Billy
