chronic myelogenous leukemia
"Full blown blast crisis.  Had extreme joint and bone pain felt like sunburn while having your skin smacked and twisted.  Went to ER got diagnosed with leukemia got bone marrow test to confirm. Needed afforesis immediately took four days. Then needed transfusions then chemo which included cytoxin.  Great medicine got my counts down quick so remission came quick.  But because I was ph  also it took other expensive and research study trials to help me.  But once I was in remission they used high doses of Cytoxin with radiation and others to get me into complete remission. Then stem transplant."
