Hi Greenie and sorry for your problems. If you know my story you know that Gleevec quit working for me after 5 years. I started taking Tasigna and it only worked for 8 months and I am now on Sprycel, the last drug out there for CML. Don't worry, you can get help for the other drugs if you have to take them. I worried every time I had to change drugs but they always get paid for. Let us hope it was just a bloop in the test and pray for the best. Good luck, Jeanie<3 In a message dated 6/28/2010 8:14:19 P.M. Pacific Daylight Time, myvet...@aol.com writes:
Hi, I've noticed the same thing about less mail. I had blood work at Northwestern Hosp. in Chicago June 2nd. and my new Doctor called me to let me know that cancer cells were showing up in my blood. I've been in a study beginning Feb 5, 2000 and now after all these years I'm having problems. She wants me back June 30 for more blood work, if their is no change then she wants to do a BMB. Of course she told me not to worry, yea sure. She said, their are other drugs out their that we can use. But she didn't know that I get my Gleevec for free from Northwestern. That I'm grand fathered in for life. Some of these Doctors have no idea what's going on, their in their own little world and don't have cancer. They just go to work each day, spend 3 min. with you in a room and out the door. Their are some good Doctor's out their that will listen but this one I have now, she's got to go. I'm going to ask for a different one on my next visit. Sorry lady, don't mean to hurt your feelings but you just don't understand.
