Eithne01,
The treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) has changed significantly since the late 1990s, with the development and subsequent approval by the Food and Drug Administration of imatinib (in 2001), the first of a class of medications called tyrosine kinase inhibitors, which target the specific abnormality that causes CML.
Before that time, patients were treated with other therapy, including interferon and bone marrow transplant, and had very poor outcomes.
Are you currently on any medication like imatinib? The neutropenia can be due to your current medication. You can ask your hematologist for G-CSF injection if you have persistent neutropenia. Patients with CML are immunocompromised and can easily acquire infections. Neutropenia also puts a patient in an immunocompromised state.
For now, it is very important to prevent acquiring any infection. You should avoid crowded places and persons with ongoing infection.
Good luck.
Hi.
Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML) is a blood disorder caused by an acquired genetic defect in the pleripotent stem cell. It has several phases: indolent chronic or stable phase, aggressive or advanced phase, and accelerated and blastic phase. The transition between phases may take years (on the average, 4 to 6 years from the stable phase to aggressive phase).
Average survival rates are generalizations, not applicable to a particular patient. The prognosis is relatively good. Newer techniques are being tried, including imatinib and stem cell transplantation.
All the best, and God Bless!
Does obstructive sleep apnea effects are different in airtight sleeping rooms like in Canada and in India where rooms are not air tight, non compliance of CPAP AND NON COMPLIANCE DENTAL APPLIANCE

I am 55, severe obs sleep apnea- non compliance CPAP, now growth hormones came at severe critical low level at stimulation tests// Insuline tolerance test and Glucagon stimulation test done on two different days. already taking Synthroid, for thyroid, belly weight. weakness,tired,confused,blurry,center head pain. sleep is not sound.
cortisol is also not normal with glucagon stimulation test. IGF-1 is low.
Can I be a candidate for growth hormone replacement therapy with immediate effect.

worried child, an unconcerned spouse, an oblivious patient, and a PCP who may not have understood the non-compliance problem adequately in the first place. So if any of you kind MD's wish to join me in this sticky-wicket, God Bless You. A kind endocrinologist would be extremely welcome. Additionally, how long can the non-compliance thing go on, before there are even bigger fish to worry about? Please feel free to email me privately as this is a sticky-wicket. Blessings.
Hi,
This issue is regarding my Father who is 63 yrs old.Very recently he started facing some problem as described below.
He used to for a walk every morning.Very recently he started feeling pain on his left side of chest & left arms after he walks for 10 min.Also sweat drops are flowing out at the back side of left ear.He becomes tired very quickly & feels short of breath.But after taking some rest he feels ok again.He never had any heart issues earlier.
TY for the reply. Yes I was told and am thinking that its parasitc or allergy. I went to aruba in June but that wouldn't have an affect on me now, would it?
s basically all over now and you are just going through the motions to meet the treatment guidelines. Ever heard of the 80% rule about compliance? If you have only missed one riba dose ever, you are still at about 99% compliance. Good job.
I've had fibromyalgia for 5 years now and the insomnia part is out of control. Saw a new sleep doc, and I don't know how I can do what he wants me to do! I did a sleep study - I had, as they put it, extremely light apnea only when I had nightmares. But since my doc wants to try me on xyrem, he said I have to use a bipap - and just found out yesterday that he needs what he calls "full compliance" - which in his words is having it on 7 hours straight, every night, no matter what.
player o negative week 8 correspond to each negative results obtained at week 13?
Are you asking how long Xanax is detectable in urine/compliance testing? It depends on a few factors- how much and how often you are taking Xanax and the type of testing being done.
If the Xanax is prescribed to you- the results would show positive if you are taking it as prescribed.
An impaired LV relaxation filling pattern is characterized by reduced ratio between early and late filling and prolonged deceleration time of mitral E wave and isovolumetric relaxation time. The restrictive LV filling pattern is associated with decreased LV compliance and is characterized by short isovolumetric relaxation time, reduced deceleration time of mitral E wave, and increased early to late diastolic filling ratio.
