Hello to all, this is an update, only an update - no need to panic! We saw the dr. today. Still no word on the transplant donor. I have left a msg. for them. Mike's dr. says he has one more round of hospital chemo before he will do another PET scan. I thought there was one more full round but this is it - another round of MXT/Ara-C and then possibly another ER visit. The dr. is going to start Mike on antibiotics as soon as he's released from the hospital so maybe we won't have the ER visit.
There are a couple of new experimental drugs out on the market so if we don't do the transplant then there's really no concrete drugs that will work so the dr. says maybe several months - possibly a year until it gets bad again.
So Mike goes in on Monday for labs and then Tuesday to the hospital so he can go to band practice on Monday night. His #s look good and he's feeling ok so that is a bonus.
Other than that nothing else is going on. I will update after the next dr. appt or when I have more info.
