Hi Sherri, I am your book-end
I also have night sweats - have had a hysterectomy - and past menopause. I am cold often in Summer and like others feel the cold terribly thru to the bones. Wear light pullovers or shrugs in summer. I also have all rugs on while sleeping in summer, so you are not alone in your issue. Hope you are feeling better. Suggestion - drink alot of wate and as the sweats hit you, just put a foot out of the covers for a few seconds, seems to stop the sweats for the rest of the night Sue ----- Original Message ----- From: cmlhope+nore...@googlegroups.com To: Digest Recipients Sent: Friday, April 22, 2011 6:37 PM Subject: [CMLHope] Digest for cmlhope@googlegroups.com - 5 Messages in 1 Topic Today's Topic Summary Group: http://groups.google.com/group/cmlhope/topics a.. New to the group [5 Updates] Topic: New to the group sherri <swanson.sherri...@gmail.com> Apr 20 01:18PM -0700 ^ Hello everyone! I was dx with CML in 2003 and am on 600 mg Gleevec once a day. I have had all of the ugly side effects from bone pain to rash. But I have stuck it out. Now I am going through night sweats. At first I thought it was menopause, but I'm not having any hot flashes and when the sweats come, I'm so cold. Has anyone else had this problem? This is a new side effect for me and I'm hoping that someone else has had it. Thanks. bkbar...@aol.com Apr 21 01:12PM -0400 ^ While have not had them myself, I am aware that night sweats are a known side effect for some people on the Kinase inhibitors. You are definately not the only one to experience it. Perimenapause can be another culprit, but the cold feeling...Ikno others have reported here as well..Hope it helps you to know that you are not alone, fellow warrior...Beth margoo...@aol.com Apr 21 02:18PM -0400 ^ I was dx in March '09, started 400 mg Gleevec, bumped up to 600 mg in spring of '10. I started with horrible night sweats in the last two months and I am well past menopause, age 59. I also get terrible chills. My hem/onc says it is a side effect that other patients have complained about and there doesn't seem to be much that can be done to alleviate the problem. I have the sweats so bad that my sheets are often soaked. Hang in there, Sherri, I'm right there with you!

It sucks. Shivering and sweating. It's like my thermometer is broken. Sometimes it's a face flushing red and chills. Sometimes face flush and hot... It's wacky!

Houtz" <ho...@ptd.net> Apr 21 03:22PM -0400 ^ Hi Sherri...I didn't have the hot flashes on Gleevec, and was on 800 mg. before being switched to Tasigna. I was, however, cold all of the time. I wore sweaters in the middle of summer. I was in my 60's and had a hysterectomy and still hadn't gone through menopause. I really have never been bothered with the sweats you're speaking of. I do hope that you will continue to join our group as everyone is so nice and helpful. Sometimes just knowing you're not the only one having these side effects helps.
