Hi Michelle, I suffer from hand pain, but it's Arthritis which has become worse since I've been on these drugs. I bought some glove type things that I wear when doing my quilting and other needle work. If I didn't have those, I couldn't crochet, quilt or embroidery and that wouldn't be a good thing. I would rather live with these pains then not have the drugs working at all. I hope that it isn't to bad and that you can deal with it, or find something that will help. There are times when mine get so bad that I put heat on them, or rub them with deep heat, as it does get painful. I'm afraid that I'm not much help,, but am sure that there are others suffering from hand pain. Mine has come and gone over the years and was much worse on the Gleevec then on Tasigna. I've not been on Sprycel, at least not for long, but it's known for causing joint pain, etc. I wish you luck dealing with it.
