Need help interpreting PCR results

[Guest guest]

Hi, not sure if my first note went anywhere so I'll try again.

I haven't posted in quite awhile, was diagosed in May in accelerated phase and

have been doing quite well on Gleevec after a rocky start.  Just had my second

PCR test.  The results of the 1st on 4/17/08 was 2.086.  The second on 10/8/08

and result is .005.  Does this equate to about a 2-log reduction?  All my doctor

said is that it is 100% better than the first. Thanks for your help.

Kathy G.
