I was on Gleevac when one day I woke up with bilateral eye bleeds. I was immediately removed from the Gleevac. If Gleevac can make your eyes bleed it's potentially possible for it to make your brain bleeed - and to cause a stroke. I've not been on any medication for CML for over 1.5 years now. This week I may be restarted on a lower dose of Gleevac per my hematologist. We will see.

But tonight I got an eye bleed. Doesn't hurt but looks awful. Anyone have any info on what to expect? Thanks, dear friends. Even my wonderful doctor says every now and then "go check with your group".
