Hi all, I did tell you I'd let you know how my Doctors visit went today. Well, we did straighten a lot out, about meds. etc. but nothing about the liver. She has talked to the other doctors and no one seems to know where they're going with this one. They think it's all being caused by the meds and I'm on so many that could have caused it. She said it probably started on Gleevec as they had me on twice the amount of what others were taking, and then it stopped working after being on it for years and he put me on the Tasigna. That's been great and got me into remission, but it also probably cost me...causing the liver problems. Well, I take so many drugs that could have caused it...or the combination of them all and we probably will never know. She did tell me that she had talked to the other doctors and Dr. Gandhi (my Oncologist) is talking with the people who make the drug and see if their doctors can come up with something. I'm still off of the Tasigna, so......when they make up their minds, I will let you know where we're going from here. She also addressed my pain and wants me to go back to pain management and see if injections might help the pain. They also won't go through the liver, so it's a good choice for that problem (if it works)!!!! I'm trying to stay positive and work with them on whatever I can. Just wanted you all to know where I'm at and will let you know when they make a decision about what to do with me....
Hope everyone is fine tonight. I'm heading to bed as I really need a good nights sleep. You're always in my thoughts and prayers, Hugs to all, Millie -- -- [CMLHope] A support group of http://cmlhope.com ------------------------------------------------- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CMLHope" group.
