Not so good news
6 months my blasts were 0%. I heard back on my recent biopsy. He says I have RAEB-2 with 10 to 15% blasts. Doctor want to start a clinical trail chemo within a week. He says my only hope is a transplant probably in a few months if I can drive the MDS into remission. Survival rates for the Denver hospital seem to be as good as any. Any advice?
Other results: The assay generated an indeterminate result in the bone marrow specimen. This finding means JAK2 allele burden is below the assay lower limit of detection but still generated amplification with JAK2 V617F specific primers
No molecular evidence for the FLT3 gene mutations (ITD and D835) is detectable by PCR-based assays in this specimen.
