Guest guest Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 Dear Lori, I believe that it is a very practical, inexpensive blood level test; something like a barometer for recording how much of the meds are retained in the body and if it is a sustainable dosage. I think your father is already on the right track if he has already taken the CML-Gist Alliance Blood Level Test. There is a link on the right of this page where your doctor can order a free testing kit. Whether or not this is for patients who use Novartis products is not known by me, since it is for professionals. Maybe someone else in the group would have more knowledge than me. http://www.cmlalliance.com/health-care-professional/cml-blood-level-tests.jsp?us\ ertrack.filter_applied=true & NovaId=7852773834005161026 ************************************* Here is a good resource for CML patients, I found only today. I hope you can find something useful in it. http://www.mycmlcare.com/patients/cml/treatments.aspx *********************************** Here is a CML tracker that you can print and keep your records to speak to you doctor about your own personal experience with CML. http://www.mycmlcare.com/patients/side-effects/list.aspx ********************************* What Do My Hematologic Test Results Mean? http://www.mycmlcare.com/patients/cml-tests/hematologic-test-results.aspx ********************************* FYI, Lottie Duthu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
