Hi Joyce and all, I took my second dose this morning--so far so good. I was a little worried because my dr only ordered enough for 2 pills a day and now he is telling me to take 3 pills a day. I don't know how the reordering works as I have never had this drug before. It seems I am in the accelerated phase of cml according to all the blood test but my bone marrow proved to be in pretty good shape. I feel better today than in a long time so let's see how it goes. My dr also say to keep taking the allupurinal daily. Didn't know this was a long termed drug. Has anyone else had their platelets in the millions? I wonder if something else could be causing it. Blessings And Prayers 18's Love
