My name is Andrea and I am 24 years old. I was DX 2
years ago yesterday.I was DX with white blood counts
of 343,000 they said that I was heading for a stroke I
was put on Gleevec 600mg and Hydroxea 400mg. 4 weeks
later I was off Hydroxea and Gleevec was lowered to
400mg. It worked pretty fast on me too.
