Hi all. Just wanted to drop a line and check in. As you all know, I went through a stem cell harvest at MDAnderson and had a month long Gleevec break. It was a nice four weeks not having to take my Gleevec and worry about nausea. I even lost a bit of weight and the swelling below my eyes went away. I started back on my 800 mgs of IM last Friday and didn't have such good luck keeping it down the first night. I was very sick. The next night was better and I've decided to start out for the next week on 400 mgs and work my way back up to 800 mgs so my body doesn't get a jolt.
Wondering if anyone has any thoughts if I could be asking for trouble with this methodology? Also - for those of you who are curious - my 'eye bags' have already returned!!! So much for losing the periorbital edema Thanks all and hope this finds everyone doing well! Barb ------------------------ Yahoo!
