I seem to have difficulty remember names of common things. I end up playing the description game in order to remember the name of the item. It is so embarracing and annoying. I started on Gleevec in 2003 and now take 600 mg./day. I have the other common side effects too. I don't post often but would like imput on this question. Thank you for your help.   Moe dxd 2/03 Moe, I started on Gleevec 2001 only 1 week after it was approved by the food and drug.  I was 56 yrs old then and noticed a change in my ability to remember things a short time later.  The people that I work with said don't be blaming every thing on the medication that you are on, we can't remember much either and we aren't on that stuff.  I still think they are wrong and that it has something to do with the Gleevec!   Jim Rodeghier dx 1997   New!
