Was hoping for some opinions. Any help would be appreciated.

 

I was dx in 7/2011. Was on Gleevac for a little over two years. Was able to get close to 0.02% of total ABL1.

Switched to 600mg/day Tasigna in2014. Numbers trended down.

I have my tests done at Mayo and for the last 6 months had a slow uptick.

Oct 20, 2014 0.06% of total abl

Feb 05, 2015 0.04% of total abl

May 22, 2015 0.02% of total ABL1

Sep 09, 2015 very low quantitative level (<0.01% of total ABL1)

Feb 02, 2016 very low quantitative level (<0.01% of total ABL1)

May 05, 2016 very low quantitative level (<0.01% of total ABL1)

Aug 12, 2016 0.01% of total ABL1

Nov 08, 2016 0.05% of total ABL1

 

Thanks in Advance!

Since the "very low quantitative level" starts at .01%, your current numbers are equal to or very close to .01%.  These are nothing to be concerned about.

Thanks Trey for the fast response and comforting words :)

It will definitely not drop to 0%. I am in cytogenetic remission for close to 13 years. Just remember to eat and exercise healthy
