Hi Kevin and thanks for your update-The news that your are doing so good on Sprycell is very uplifting--I have been on Sprycell for about 4 months now and I'm doing good. I do have the feeling of being really hot sometimes-my face feels hot and I kick the covers off at night even when it's cold-did you ever have that? Merry Christmas to all Blessings Jeanie<3 In a message dated 12/7/2009 1:05:22 P.M. Pacific Standard Time, [email protected] writes:
Hi Michael, I had the same issues with Gleevec. As others have stated, taking Gleevec with meals and avoiding spicy foods and Coke were helpful. I was on Gleevec for about 2.5 years and my symptoms, i.e, swelling, nausea, diarrhea and muscle cramps never went away. Because I saw no cryogenic response from Gleevec, I switched to Sprycell and all of my symptoms went away.Luckily I also had a cryogenic response with Sprycell and have been PCRU for 2 years.
