I hope the increased dose will help. If it does not some have gone as high as 800 mg and got good results. The new AMN and BMS drugs are in various clinical trial locations and he should be able to get access to a trial location if that is needed. Those drugs have had very good results.

If that wasn't enough for the day he tells us that he is moving away at the end of this month! We are in rural Illinois there are not alot of CML doctors around here.Thanks for listing to me.I hope you are all doing well.Sandy Johnson --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ [CMLHope] A support group of http://cmlhope.com ------------------------------------------------- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CMLHope" group.
