Hi
I have been recently diagnosed with essential thrombocytosis. My count is normal high 520, however, I go for a bone marrow biopsy on March 20 and I am really nervous. Especially since I won't be put under. However, I have been doing research and a new drug Gleevec has some good remissions even with leukemia. THey use it for blood disorders. However, there are side effects, one of which is congestive heart failure but it is rare.
I will pray for all of us.
