Greenie, ?? Glad to hear that your feeling a little more yourself, the only time i had off from gleevec is that earlier this year I accidently took a double douse (800 sted of 400) & my onc told me to take a couple of days off that started to feel real good. I don't want to take too many chances because I have skin cancer plus I still have to watch the prostate.
? But in spite of the bone aches, cramps, memory loss & all the rest of things that we have to put off its good to be alive.? Keep looking up. ??????

Each day I seem to be doing better.? The 26 day break from Gleevec and the Meds the nose Dr. gave me seem to have done the job.? Once my body cleaned itself out of all Meds, that must have done the job. I started Gleevec 2 days ago and so everything seems to be O.K.? Just have to wait and see what happens. My delete key is not working I typed the same sentence twice.? Sorry. ? Greenie ? In a message dated 8/17/2009 2:38:08 P.M. Central Daylight Time, mustar...@aol.com writes: Hi suzieq, ?? I'll keep praying that everything works out on your visit?to the onc. & that your back gets better. Its been a while since? i posted because it took a long time to feel better from the radiation i had this year. I had a prostectomy in 04 & the cancer came back in the prostate bed at the end of 08. I really appreciate all the sharing &? caring that i get from all of you & want you to know that you all are in my prayers. Greenie hang in there better days are ahead because Lord knows that you had enough of the other kind. ?? I find now that I'm in my senior (I don't like that word) years that i seem to cope a lot better with what ever comes down the pike. Thanks again everybody for all the sharing & caring & God bless you all. ????????????????? Frank ? In a message dated 8/15/2009 3:49:26 P.M.

I am a little anxious to see how things are since this was my first 6 month stretch after being Dx'ed back in '04 (Jan.).? But, I feel like it should all be good.....no complaints other than I noticed that the "spleen pain" went away for a while and is now back again, just not as bad.? Maybe it will go away completely one of these days...lol....one can only hope. I've really struggled the past three or four months with my lower back....finally broke down and went back to the chiropractor for relief and he has helped tremendously with some,? but I notice that it is still tender no matter how often I've iced it down.......other than this, I have no health complaints much.? I know that there's many of you who do suffer from other stuff.....& my heart goes out to you....I am glad I do not have to deal with anything but the CML.....but, if there comes that day......will just do like I always do.....try to stay positive & look for the humor & keep my faith strong even when I am weak.? All we can do, huh?
