Shannon, Thanks for posting. Glad to see that Gleevec has done well for you. It is always uplifting to hear from you veterens too. Please keep us posted on how your feeling, it is always in the back of my head what the long term side effects will be with Gleevec, sharing your experience can prepare us for what to possibly expect down the road. I understand what your saying about family and friends not really wanting to have a lot of conversation about the disease, I have the same situation, that's why these groups are so important, you guys understand were I'm coming from and visa versa. Take care! Brenda (43) dx 5/04 pcru 5/05
