BCR ABL Increase

Hi All

Hope you're all safe and well.

Advice needed please. I was diagnosed in December 2020 and my BCR ABL got down to 0.2% on 1st September 2021...(from June's blood tests) and then 0.000% on 24th November 2021....(from September blood test) consultant was really pleased as was I.
Now just had call from consultant to say my BCR ABL has gone upto 1.1% on my blood tests in November 2021.

The only difference has been my 3rd primary covid vaccine a week before I went for my blood tests. I've put a bit of weight on....but kept walking, working full time, kept taking Imatinib at 10am every day.

I'm now getting my self in a state over the increase. Consultant is going to rerun tests on 24th January to see if a blip...but that's 4 weeks of worry until results come back.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks all, sorry for the long post 😊😊😊

Take care

Deni
