Guest guest Posted February 2, 2007 Report Share Posted February 2, 2007 Hi all, and especially those of you in and around Ottawa. My local hematologist, Dr. Janis Bormanis, is retiring and suggested that I switch to Dr. Isabelle Bence-Bruckler. I saw her for the first time last week and after an excellent interview she scheduled me for a BMB today. It was my opinion that Dr. Bormanis did the best BMBs. Well, after today's BMB with Dr. Bence-Bruckler, I have a new best BMBer. If Dr. Bormanis was a 9.5 on my scale, then Dr. Bence-Bruckler is a perfect 10. No pain at all. Not even during the application of the freezing. We chatted throughout the entire procedure. It was not a great surprise since Dr. Bormanis was her teacher. Two samples were taken. One will be analyzed here in Ottawa and the other will be sent to Dr. Suzanne Kamel-Reid's lab at the PMH in Toronto. This will confirm whether my last BMB done in Ottawa was really PCRU.
