[CML] Gleevec remission time

[Tigerlvr15]

btw....a new member mentioned that her doc has said that many folks should  reach remission after just 3 months of taking Gleevec.   Is this the  story for most of you??     Lora,   Clyde was also one of the lucky ones who gained remission after only 3 months on 400 mg of Gleevec. He continues to be in total remission.   After hearing everyone else's stories of horrible side effects, we realize how lucky & fortunate he is. He only has edema under both eyes, is constantly very cold and complains of joint aches.   I don't post much anymore but I read the Digests everyday and send them to Clyde to read.   Our thoughts are with you, Terry and your children & everyone else who is suffering with this awful disease.   Our best wishes to everyone for a Merry Christmas & a much better year in 2006.   Carol Furumoto Clyde Dx 9/1999 Zero club New!
