Hi everyone, I haven't had a stroke but the chemo I'm on now, Ponatinib, will cause stroke, blood clots, heart attacks, and you name it is a side effect of this chemo, however, after being in blast I went into remission within just 3 months on this chemo; Praise God from whom all blessings flo. My girls and grandson took me out for a fantastic lunch yest. and what a memory maker that is. My mother had a stroke when she was about 78 and the only thing she could remember was how to sign her name. She had to learn how to speak and write again; went to classes and soon was almost back to normal. Strokes run in our family; my grandmother and mother plus my sister all having them at about age 78. My sister didn't make it through hers but my grandmother and mother did. Could you tell us how you felt when you were having your stroke? Did you take aspirin? I found out I had leukemia in 2009 after being so tired after my usual walks. Had blood test and immediately put in hospital for blood cleansing and then put on Gleevec. It was a rough road on Gleevec and then the mutants took over---more later. Enjoy the day and keep on fighting warrior. In a message dated 6/1/2017 7:54:16 A.M.
