Hi guys,

As of Monday afternoon, I have been diagnosed with Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia...
I have begun chemo pills to lower the white blood cell levels.
Normal white blood cell level is 4-11, my current level is 500,000!!
I will be going in this afternoon for a bone marrow biopsy to find out what stage it is in and Thursday for another blood test and dr. appt. Along with weekly blood tests for at least the next 2 months.
