So I saw my Dr. today, and we further discussed Azacitidine as maintenance against relapse...
My prelim BMB results came back from my 6 month BMB, and I was still 100% Donor, no chimerism, 1% blasts, and no CD34+ expression... This along with my Myleoblative SCT, and total body irradiation (pre-SCT), leaves me with little to benefit from the chemo...
We decided that since things are going so well, no maintenance treatment would be used, and unless things change, I shouldn't need it...
Thanks be to God!!!! Best to all & God Bless...
