Cord transplant anyone?

@loribmt — thanks for the book suggestion. I’m having another biopsy done Tuesday, along with a special type of flow cytometry MRD test that looks for NPM1. It will help us determine whether certain pre-leukemia cells found at my time of diagnosis are now leukemic. If the biopsy shows remission and the NPM1-MRD test both come back negative, we will simply continue to monitor. If either test comes back positive, then we’ll move to a transplant.

@pefishback Sending positive vibes for a clean biopsy Tuesday. NPM1 was one of the 3 lovely mutations that launched me into this ‘career’ of mentoring people with AML/BMT. 😉. We never know where life leads us…
Please let me know what you find out, ok?
