[CMLHope] Re: Jeanie/transfusion
Hi Nancy, Good to meet you. Yes, we're related; CML TWINS HEHE. How did the Gleevec quit working for you and how are you doing on Tasigna? My platelets started going up and then my potassium went up, so I was having a time. I then got blast in my blood and went into aml. I hope I am on the right track now.

I'm sure you will feel better because of it. Good luck with all your other tests including the ct scan. I read an earlier post of yours and realized that we were diagnosed at the same time, January 2004. I was on Gleevec from that time until last June 2008. Now, we're both on Tasigna! It's almost like we're related! lol! Best wishes, Nancy in NY **New MapQuest Local shows what's happening at your destination. Dining, Movies, Events, News & more. Try it out!

[CMLHope] Re: Re Jeanie and Barium
Hi Judy and thanks a lot. Yes, I was told to drink lots of water, and they started bringing me juice and water right after it was done. I have just the opposite lately, diarrhea and I don't know if I should do something about it, or leave it alone. I have had it a while now. Thanks again, Blessings, Jeanie<3 In a message dated 10/1/2008 8:06:37 A.M. Pacific Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Hi Jeanie - just remember to drink lots of water after your test to get rid of the barium. Unless they have added something to it to make it soft when you expel it, which is highly unlikely, it hardens rather quickly and it's hard to get rid of (physically). If you are susceptible to constipation you've really got to drink lots of water to get the stuff moving out of your system. Hope all goes well - I'm praying for you.

[CMLHope] Re: Jeanie/transfusion
Hi Nancy, I'm Millie from Pennsylvania and have been on Tasigna for about 3 months now. They've played with dosage some and I have had some side effects, but am now back on 800 mg. and seem to be doing okay on that amount. Jeanie and I have been comparing notes for a while, and it sure does help knowing you're not alone in your fight. I've been fighting this for about 10 years now and am not in remission, but hoping that Tasigna will do it for me. Just wanted to touch base as there aren't to many of us on this new drug, and it's interesting to know how it's affecting us. Best wishes with your fight and, hopefully, this Tasigna will be the answer for all of us. Millie in PA. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ [CMLHope] A support group of http://cmlhope.com - You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CMLHope" group.
