I guess because of the holidays, it took a while getting to me. (smile) I am still "None Detected" all across the board! HALLELUJAH!!!! I have tested this now each time since July 12, 2010. And, this time I thought it would be most important since it was 1 year since cutting my Gleevec from the 400mgs I had been taking since day one (Feb. '04) in half to 200mgs. So, it is working just fine! My body seems to have adjusted to the 200mgs. and I don't have any problems with taking it as I did with the 400. I am still having a lot of joint pain, but not a whole lot I can do about it. I did talk with her about how I think we are going to have to address this within the next year. I told her that maybe they could send me to some doctor that specializes in Arthritis. Well, just wanted to share this. I want to also wish every one a very Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays. God bless you one and all throughout the New Year, too!
