2 BONE MARROW BIOPSIES LATER

It took 2 bone marrow biopsies to get the news. The first biopsy done a few weeks ago was inconclusive so Terry had to have another one last week. FYI, this was her 9th biopsy since being diagnosed with multiple myeloma. The news was very good. Terry's primary hematologist/oncologist said the biopsy was as good as it gets. Her new regimen is working! One slight glitch is that she now has a new growth on her palate. She has to have that aspirated and then a pathologist will see what this new thing is all about.
We did contact the University of Michigan transplant center and they want to do a few more tests before anything is finalized. So for the time being everything is status quo. She stays on her current chemo, has an aspiration on her palate, gets some repeat tests and then a decision will be made.
In the meantime Terry is doing well. I am sure that is because of the tons of prayers said for her daily.
God bless you all.
