Hello to all: Just wanted to update those I had talked to before about having a problem with my throat & voice in the mornings. It was like I had something in my throat & didn't have much of a voice........after a few hours, it would be fine. Well, Anjana suggested it might be water retention around the vocal cords because she noticed her husband who's been taking Gleevec for some time now had had the same problem for a while. After taking a mild dosage of a generic form of Lasix the last month, I don't seem to have that problem any longer. My doctor told me it was up to me whether I wanted to take it daily or only when I felt I needed it the most. I just went ahead and took it every day along with the extra Potassium she prescribed & noticed that I don't seem to have the swollen hands and feet as before. Still have a mild swelling around the eyes some mornings & just deal with it. It's not as bad as it was in the beginning, thank the Lord. I awoke some mornings looking as though I had been in the ring with Rocky Balboa! (smile)
