Hi Kelly and good to hear from you. I didn't know you were on Sprycel; how long have you been on it? I have been on it for about 3 months, and doing good. I was so sick; in the hospital for 10 days having platelet aspheresis; my platelets were 2 million. Sprycel had them back to normal now. I've had little side effects from Sprycel; just bad headaches. No swelling so far. Good luck Jeanie<3 In a message dated 10/20/2009 5:38:04 P.M. Eastern Daylight Time, [email protected] writes:
Hi Jeanie: There is no way I am offended by ANYONE'S religion or faith in Jesus. I was raised a Christian and still consider myself a Christian with an open mind to all religious philosophies. I just don't march to a rigid drummer in that regard. You are always so sweet and helpful.....how could anyone be offended?? BTW, I am on 100 mg of Sprycel, too. My numbers are trending down. Of all things, I've lost 30 lbs. while on Sprycel and Pristiq (an antidepressant) - I do not know which drug to attribute this weight loss to, but I am pleased since I gained so much on the Gleevec. Of note, Pristiq is metabolized through the kidneys not the liver and I suspect this has helped considerably with water retention. For the first time, my wedding ring is too big! We are all in this together, we are all connected, regardless of religious philosophy or simply no religious affiliation. Respect for all is key.
