Hi @rockitman. You have to be relieved to have a sound diagnosis and plan joining forward!!
Personally, I’m relieved to know you’re getting regular platelet checks and infusions! Your reserves were getting pretty low. Ok, still no knife juggling but at least now you can relax a little.
Yes on the 2nd biopsy from Mayo. The bmbx (bone marrow biopsy and examination) are incredibly detailed and the equipment used by Mayo is state of the art. Your doctor can ask for specific tests on the cells collected for his purpose. I’m not surprised that a new bmbx is in the offing. And as a veteran of 13 biopsies, my preference is the quick general anesthesia they offer. You’re out about 15 minutes and wake up happy to juice and snack. 😃
That’s for reporting back. When the next biopsy?
