Hello everyone: I've been on Gleevec now for a little over 2 1/2 years. In the beginning the nausea & diarreah were pretty rough, but eventually leveled off and I adapted. In fact, barely had any nausea at all. Well, about a week or so ago, it's all come back with a vengence. I was up way in to the middle of the night last night & thought I was going to throw up. I did try some Pepto Bismal earlier in the evening, but didn't even faze it. I certainly don't want to be taking any more prescription drugs.....so does anyone out there have any other way of relieving the nausea. The diarreah, I can handle pretty much.......just the nausea is what gets to me right now. Is it usual for these side effects to come & go like this? At first, I tought I had caught a "bug," but I am pretty sure it's from the Gleevec.
Thanks for any help........am sorry to read of those who are having such a bad time of it.....and for those who are so young. No one that young should have to deal with a disease like CML.
