I'm wondering...is it just me or does it seem that more CMLers are going 'quickly' on to the 2nd and 3rd (4th?)generation drugs? I understand that some folks have had such horrible side effects and/or they became Gleevic-resistant but are doctors 'pushing' patients to these new drugs?
After 6 1/2 years on Gleevic I have only been undetectable once. That was after Dr. Soiffer at Dana Farber increased my dose from 400 to 600mg. The side effects were HORRIBLE. Right back down to the 400mg...my counts fluctuate but stay consistently within range. He is happy with it and my side-effects are tolerable. I'm VERY curious as to this... -- [CMLHope] A support group of http://cmlhope.com ------------------------------------------------- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CMLHope" group.
