Hello I am 25 years old, I got diagnosed with Chronic Myloid Leukemia at 22 years old, I have been in remission for almost 2 years , I currently take Sprycel for the cancer still but my oncologist told me once I hit the 2 year mark I could start to come off of the oral chemo. My question is, am I able to get a tummy tuck or bbl once I come off the oral chemo ? Because I know certain plastic surgeons don’t want to go near “leukemia patients” because it has to do with the blood.
Answer: BBL is not out of the question Thank you for your question regarding whether it’s possible to get a tummy tuck and BBL after oral chemotherapy for CML or chronic check. The next word in the question; I think it’s my acidic leukemia. This is a very important question. It’ll be essential for you to have the medical clearance and guidance of your hematologist-oncologist. Certain medications suppress your ability to heal and stop an inflammatory response. It’ll be essential that you are off all these medications before your before and after your tummy tuck and BBL. In addition, it’ll be vital for you to have normal hemoglobin before the surgery. Jimmy affects your bone marrow and your ability to produce adequate red blood cells, among other things. Therefore, BBL is not out of the question. Your team will have to work carefully with your hematologist and oncologist to obtain clearance before the surgery and assist in guidance to ensure your bone marrow makes enough blood to heal. Good luck. I hope this answer Also I hope my solution helps answer your question regarding being able to have a tummy tuck after taking oral chemotherapy drugs for CML.

Answer: Tummy tuck Dear ashleyk522, it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. You might need a clearance from your doctor prior to surgery. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.
