Hello Lori,

Thank you for your reply. No, not a beekeeper but I imagine my ancestors were. Beewoman is a nickname I acquired when I played softball on a women's city league.

Anyway, you all can call me Lori. My next blood work is on Sept 28 and monthly thereafter. I am still awaiting a formal pathology report from Cleveland Clinic. Mayo Clinic did the initial analysis of NGS data but deferred to my Hematology Specialist at University of Toledo Dana Cancer Center to render final diagnosis. My doctor at UTMC referred me to Cleveland Clinic Taussig Cancer Center whose leukemia specialist asked my NGS data to be reviewed by Cleveland Clinic Pathology. My doc at Cleveland Clinic just gave me a brief message indicating that I am at the verge of CMUS and full-blown CMML, I am anxious to see the formal report from pathology that I hope will provide more detail.

Thank you for the links also to other Cmml posts. I will be in touch.

Lori B
