I'm sure they will get the hemoglobin thing worked out.

The hemoglobin is the center of attention right now. We have added an otc iron table 65mg daily and that is helping with the fatigue. I will do a CBC the end of the month to check on everything. I am loving the decreased (Gleevec) fog being on only 300mg. Richard H. On Thursday, April 2, 2015 at 5:00:39 PM UTC-5, rszi...@aol.com wrote: Sorry to hear this Richard. I hope they will proceed to the next drug, (bosulif is working for me), and we have similar histories. It is so tough to fight the fatigue. I feel for ya! What are your bcr/abl numbers at last check because of the gleevec? Hoping they are good. Have a wonderful holiday weekend,. and 18's, Susan F.

Not good for me. My HGB is dropped from 10.2 to 9.6. ONC is ordering the iron test so we can be prepared to start Procrit again, and IF that fails we will discuss proceeding downward until it is transfusion time or just proceed to the next drug. Yes, I expected this result as my fatigue has been increasing. It has tried to be spring here the last couple of weeks, but they say we are going to have winter's last fling starting with rain and ending with sleet pellet/penny size on Saturday. I too am becoming anxious about our Marty. He is in my daily prayers. 18's as Marty advocates.
