Hello all, Just out of curiousity, what were some of your experiences when you started getting results from Gleevec? Did you start feeling better as the disease left your system? Or was the Gleevec harder to tolerate the longer you were on it, whether your results were improving or not?
Also, how did you find everything when you began Gleevec, compared to where you are now? For example, I started on 400mg in April/05, and when I was increased to 600mg in June/05, it knocked me on my butt. I actually started feeling better when I started taking 800mg in Jan/06, because it seemed that taking my pills twice a day instead of once was easier on my system. Anyway, just curious about some of your stories. I know we can't necessarily guage one person's progress by another's, but I would be interested to know if there are some similarities any of you out there have had while taking Gleevec. I thought it might be interesting to talk amongst ourselves about this, because as doctors have the knowledge and statistics on some of the "black and white" areas surrounding cancer drugs, perhaps we can fill in the grey areas in between. Take care and best wishes!
