Clinical Data Gives Me a Sprycel Rash?

66 year old female with newly diagnosed chronic myelogenous leukemia and a history of night sweats and chondrosarcoma (diagnosed in 1968) status post right hemipelvectomy.

Outside flow cytometry report reveals

neutrophilia with left shifted granulocytosis
and increased basophils and eosinophils
and no increased CD-4 positive blasts;
JAK2 kinase mutation is negative;
BCR/ABL is positive with breakpoint at B2A2

(collected 9/8/11).

Bone marrow submitted for evaluation......

Note: I wish I understood what all this means

I hope this Sprycel rash goes away!
