Better late than never

Went to the clinic with a new set of results on Tuesday 12th March.
They where a little higher, previous ones where 0.03 this one was 0.09 so I have to go back in a months time to see if its a glitch or I need to have my medication changed to something else. They may also do a bone marrow sample, oh deep joy at the thought of that.  The cause of the glitch maybe that I had a very bad cold, took about 4 to 5 days to clear up. The biggest problem is not really being able to take extra medicine, especially paracetamol based. As both paracetamol and Glivec (the Leukemia medication) are both processed by the liver. There has been several cases where someone has died while on Glivec and took paracetamol. 
Well I go  on the 25th to have a new blood test and back to the clinic 4 weeks later, I will get the results about the 17th April then the following week its of to the clinic again. So fingers crossed.
