So Happy for you, SuzieQ! Not happy about the sciatica, etc., so hope you can conquer that soon.
I am beginning tasigna on Wednesday at the lowest dose. I've been off all meds for 6 yrs and 3 mos., and can hardly move with like sludge in my veins. Absolutely no energy. The numbers were 17.7 for the recent fish test, so decided it was time. Please pray I tolerate this drug and have no more brain bleeds from the medication as I did with gleevec. My doc tells me 125 mg. once a day is the lowest dose. Can anyone verify this for me? I'm very concerned, as he had never heard of bosutinib two months ago, but now did not recommend it for me.

My doctor is letting me cut the Gleevec back to 100mgs a day and we will see how that does. I will celebrate my tenth anniversary of my diagnosis next February 6th (according to my mom as that's her birthday and she always reminds me that I called her and told her on her birthday about the diagnosis.) I see the new Pain Management Specialist this coming Friday. I do hope he is able to help me. I have had two awful bad nights in a row now. Was doing much better up till then. Been seeing my Chiropractor regular and he's been helping me quite a bit with my Sciatic leg pain and hip pain. But, then the arthritis in the SI joints decided to act up and there isn't a whole lot he can do for that. I've been hitting my bottle of pain meds pretty regular for past two days. I am beginning to think my husband may be right about me being in a wheel chair soon. But, I will do all I can to fight that and keep going. I don't mind walking with my cane if I need to, but don't want to give into the wheel chair before I turn 60 years old. Alright, gotta get going now. Y'all have a great day and enjoy the summer.....
