Sounds like what I had in the same timeframe, starting a couple months after diagnosis. The weird tingling in my upper legs in front and inner thighs was mildly painful, and felt like it was under my skin but not in my muscles. My Onc said it was nerve pain, which Gleevec can cause, and the nerves react to something that isn't there. It generally subsided after a couple months.
My Onc said to exercise more, not less, even though the body initially says "just rest quietly, please". For me the exercise has worked well. I try to be very active, and exercise actually reduces my side effects as far as I am concerned. The more active I am, the better I feel. I have very few side effects, and very little pain. It takes a few months for the body to get used to Gleevec. You are doing very well, and should be pleased with your progress. --Trey dx Oct 2005 PCRU since June 2006 --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ [CMLHope] A support group of http://cmlhope.com ------------------------------------------------- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CMLHope" group.
