Suzieq, I can't write this in stone but I think Novartis is still making way to much money so it will be awhile before they give it up. Such a shame, it cost more in the U. S. then any other country. They had a store about them on 60 minutes a few months ago, Greed, but it is saving lives, I'm on it. Saved my life. greenie In a message dated 8/14/2015 8:27:30 P.M.

To my CML Survivors: Just wanted to let everyone know that my BCR-ABL results came back and I am once again "none detected".......I'm so very happy. So, who knows why the results last Dec. 31st turned up positive after being negative since July of 2009. Might just have been a false positive or something. I know it sure upset me. LOL!! My doctor settled me down as did my husband. She wants me to continue on with the 100mgs. a day of Gleevec. I think I started that about a year and half ago. We're hoping it will keep me at the "none detective". I just do not feel comfortable with going off the Gleevec completely. Okay, everyone have a great evening. And, if anyone knows how to get a hold of Skip, send him a message and try and find out how he is doing. Keep Looking Up, Suzieq p.s. did Novartis extend the patent on Gleevec or is it up. I was thinking it was suppose to be up around the 4th of July. I know it is still very expensive. I thought surely it would start dropping in price by now. -- -- [CMLHope] A support group of _http://cmlhope.com_ (http://cmlhope.com/) ------------------------------------------------- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CMLHope" group.
