Well Anjana and Cheryl-Anne-
I heard from MDA, I am staying on the .43 of Peg IFN each week. A positive out of all this is I am now aware of which side effects go with which drug. I was off the IFN for a week and my diarrhea went away, my "fog memory" began to clear up....however, all the swelling from the Gleevec was returning! I guess for me, they (the drugs) balance each other out- IFN helps me lose the weight Gleevec puts on....
I am staying on 800mg of Gleevec and .43 of Peg IFN for now.
