Subject: Re: [CML] Gleevec remission
time
I've been taking Gleevec (400 mil) for about six months now & my onc
told me that
I'm close to remission but I should give it a year and "wait and see". He
just did the
FISH test but I don't know the results yet. Thank God most of
the side effects have
lessened except for the fatigue. Best to all 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.
