CML after pregnancy

Hi,
Hope everybody is well. I thought that I would update after my pregnancy. My baby girl is exactly 7 months now and crawling! A right activity bundle...seems fascinated with plant pots! She continues to be the sunshine in my life and brings me so much joy!

With regard to my CML, I am very happy with my results. Within just 3 months of taking Gleevec again, my PCR was back at 0.2% (zero with FISH). I feel really well and am really enjoying motherhood.

I hope this encourages other people who are thinking about becoming pregnant with CML. I didn’t take Gleevec for 12 months but injected myself with Interferon. My baby daughter continues to be completely healthy and has made my life complete!

My very best wishes to all!

Sharon
