Cyclophosphamide "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 apheresis immediately, took four days. Then needed transfusions, then chemo, which included Cytoxan. Great medicine, got my counts down quick, so remission came quick. But because I was PH, also took other expensive and research study trials to help me. But once I was in remission, they used high doses of Cytoxan with radiation and others to get me into complete remission. Then stem transplant."

"My hemoglobin is going back up. No transfusions needed. Some small sores in mouth upon waking up in the AM. Some lower back pain in the AM, which goes away with activity. Need to drink lots of fluids. Overall, this drug is really helping as I am feeling much better and have returned to a very active lifestyle."
