Low platelets, low WBC. First post

Hello Sandy,

Thanks for your message.

As you probably remember, I had a hospital appointment with the doctor today. Had a blood test first. Then to the doctor.

We were told from the blood test that the disease looks like it has progressed and on to something worst,
possibly AML. I will be having another bone marrow biopsy in the next week to get a clearer picture of what is going on.

I won't be going on Asciminib now by the looks of it. The doctor considers that a stem cell transplant was not likely to be offered

because of my age, even though I am healthy in every other way.  Anyway we shall see.  Another face to face appointment is being arranged for the 27th February.

Of course my wife and I were quite stunned to be told this news. I'll keep you posted

All the best

Paul
