Hi Susan, my daughter's name is Susan. I live in South Fort Myers, minutes from the Golf, it's a 55 and older community . I've been going to Northwestern University School of Medicine since 1999. It's just 2 blocks south of the John Hancock building. They call it the Robert H. Lurie Comprehensive Cancer Center of Northwestern University. 675 North St. Clair Street Suite 21 which is the 21st floor. Chicago, IL. 60611. You can call 312-695-0990. They have a team of Doctors that you would work with. My Doctors name is Jessica K. Altman MD., theirs Olga Frankfurt, MD,MS. theirs Dr. Leon C. Platanias, MD, PhD, just to name a few. How you would get in their I don't know unless you just call, or have your Doctor refer you to Northwestern. I know one thing they are good and the area is very safe, easy parking right across the street. Parking garage 10 stories high. I think they charge $10.00 for 7 hours and you get your receipt stamped at the desk before you leave. Their pretty tight lipped and won't give out any information about other patients. Which is O. K. by me. And they have a great cafeteria to eat your lunch. It's a big place, takes up a couple city blocks. You should check it out and it's and easy drive. If you want you can email me and give me your phone number and I'll call you and we can talk. _myvety2k@aol.com_ (mailto:myvet...@aol.com) . Hope this helps, greenie In a message dated 5/18/2013 8:58:57 A.M. Eastern Daylight Time, rszim0...@aol.com writes: Hi Greenie,
I am from Indiana also, and looking for a good doctor in the Chicago area that knows a lot about CML. Do you suggest someone at Northwestern or do you know anyone at University of Chicago? Dr. Druker's nurse told my friend of a name, Dr. Larsen who is at U. of Chicago if he has not retired or moved. My latest FISH test showed 17.74 number, which gives me some cause for alarm. Anyone have any opinion about that? I'm the one who hasn't had any medicine for six years and 2 months now. I live in the South Bend/Granger area, and do not have faith in any of these local doctors. Where do you live, Greenie? Thanks and 18's, Susan F. Zimmerman "Look among the nations and watch; be utterly astounded!

This new study is sponsored by Northwestern, I didn't mean to get Novartis involved with my email I think they wanted someone that was of my age, 73 that's been on Gleevec for over 13 years. I don't know anything about the 2 other people involved in this study. I asked one time about the 7 other people that were in the first study back in 2000 and they said they can't give out any information about them. Seven of them were from Chicago land and I was the only one from Indiana. I don't even know if any of them are still in any study or alive. greenie In a message dated 5/15/2013 8:03:53 P.M.

My son and is wife and my 7 month old grandson picked me up at Midway. Doctor told me that I need not come back for (1) year only to pickup same. She said if I want to I could see a cancer Doctor here in Fort Myers once a year that way I would be getting my month work every 6 months instead of every 3 months. It's up to me. So that's good news and they put me into another study with 2 other people plus some in other countries. Good to here your doing O. K. Greenie In a message dated 5/14/2013 4:43:53 P.M.
