Hi Skip, Thanks a lot. I was thinking of taking a Gleevec vacation until my neutrophils come back up, but I will talk to my onc first. I am getting my blood checked every two weeks and it's strange how fast you cbcs can change. I think the 400 mgs but be the safe dose for Gleevec, but if you have to take more, it comes with risk. Of course, all meds come with risk. I take mine with a dose of faith thrown in for good measure hehe. Blessings, Jeanie<3 In a message dated 3/29/2008 3:33:39 P.M.
