Dear Jeanie, Sorry you are going through such a tough time. I am surprised
about what your bottle said about the gloves. I never have had that on any of
mine. Lynn F.

Hi and thanks,
Yes, I will ask the Doctor about these cells.
I wonder what is going on?
Is the treatment worse than the disease?
Sometimes, I wonder.
Well, we all know chemo in any form is no picnic.
I never realized I was doing chemo until one of my pill bottles came with the
warning: handle with gloves; wow! you are not suppose to touch this but we are
putting it in our bodies.
However, we are CML WARRIORS, and we will fight this with all we can get our
hands on.
Keep fighting brave ones,
Blessings,
Jeanie<3

Jeanie,
Increasing the dosage of Gleevec will often suppress the counts of the
granulocyte cell lines (neutrophils, eosinophils, basophils), but will
not normally affect the lymphocyte cells (T-cells, B-cells, etc) by
creating either smudge cells (fragile lymphocyte cells that break open
easily) or atypical lymphocyte cells (odd sizes, shapes, or nucleus),
neither of which are normally associated with CML. I would ask the
doc about the smudge cells and atypical lymphocytes.
