When I was on sprycel an indication of PL was first a shortness of breath, they did xray and where your lung should be is nothing but a white area. You can see the other side as a dark area, which is the lung. The procedure is quick over a month and half they took 8 and a 1/2 500 ML bottles out, when they have it cleared your white area is back to normal black. SkipD
