Hello everyone God bless you all!!! I have been out of touch for a while.  
My situation is still complicated, but rather uneventfull.  I went 
 to my appointment and my oncologist for the day told me that I might need 
another bone marrow aspiration and biopsy soon.  She was worried because my 
platelets went down. The problem is that I have not been able to take my 
sprycel steadily.  I have skipped some days.  Sprycel acts really strongly on 
my platelet count, and I know this is what is happenning.  Apparently, I have 
an infection also running around my system. To make it more interesting, I have 
been out of medication for a whole week due to insurance red tape...
I will resume my Sprycel 70 mcg dose daily tomorrow after I do another CBC.
I have an appointment in two weeks...


Well, please take care Love you
Blessings!!! :)

painful jaw? 

icandoall...@aol.com: Sep 01 10:38AM -0400 

Hi Marty and thanks, yes I am going to get an antibiotic for it. I have 
been treating it with heat and etc. but no luck. It is something new that I 
have never had before, so it is a worry. I have had strep throat a lot of 
my young adult life, but not in later years, and it had to be treated with 
antibiotics.
How are you?
I am good except for this new pain. Looking forward to the fall.
Blessings,
Jeanie<3

Hi Jeanie, 
 
 
Having ear infections is not uncommon. However please don't do nothing 
about it because you don't want it to spread if it is an infection. Go get it 
treated by your doctor usually an antibiotic is all that you will need and 
once on it you would start feeling much better in a couple of days.
 
 
Also, having CML and being on any TKI you should look to avoid the sun. 
 
 
I hope that you will feel better real soon.
 
 
18's,
 
 
Marty

Hello to all my cml warriors,
I have been sick; my jaw is sore and it feels like my ear is infected. I 
have been home treating it with hot compresses and etc. Has anyone else 
had this happen? It is very painful.
Yes, I always get really hot if I don't keep my air going. I always spent 
time in the sun, but now this time is very limited.
I had really bad night sweats when I was first dx. I would run a fever, 
take a tylenol and sweat it off. Then it would come back again.
With Sprycel, I don't sweat unless I get really hot. I always thought 
sweat was another way for the body to expel waste products, so it isn't a bad 
thing.
Sorry to hear some can't take the Sprycel, as it has done wonders for me. 
We are all different so we have to listen to our bodies and decide along 
with our doctors advice.
Still worried about the high platelets, but don't get tested until the end 
of Sept.
Thanks for the prayers and all; we need them.
Pray for all in need at this time.
Blessings,
Jeanie<3

Hi Elizabeth.
I am on Tasigna. Whenever I do anything involving physical activity, like 
mowing the lawn, I am usually ok for the first 10 or 20 minutes. Then 
almost instantly, I start sweating profusely, especially in the face and around 
the neck and it isn't long after that, when I start running out of steam. 
It was like that too when I was taking Gleevec. So, I figure that this is

2014-09-03 Thread Marty Gartenberg
Maria, good luck with your blood test.

Here are some words to live by...

EXPECT THE BEST, MIND OVER MATTER. SUCCESS IS A FUNCTION OF SELF
CONFIDENCE. TO HAVE SUCCESS AT ANYTHING YOU MUST FIRST LEARN TO BELIEVE IN
YOURSELF. IF YOU EXPECT THE WORSE THEN THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT YOU WILL GET
(MIND OVER MATTER) IF YOU EXPECT THE BEST THEN THAT IS WHAT YOU WILL GET.

WHAT WE HAVE TO LEARN TO DO IS TO CHANGE OUR MENTAL HABITS, OUR STATES OF
MIND. LEARN TO EXPECT AND NOT TO DOUBT. BY DOING THIS YOU BRING EVERYTHING
INTO THE REALM OF POSSIBILITY. WHEN YOU LEARN TO BELIEVE THEN WHAT YOU
THOUGHT TO BE IMPOSSIBLE THEN MOVES INTO THE AREA OF POSSIBILITY.

EVERY GREAT THING EVENTUALLY BECOMES POSSIBLE FOR YOU. MY BELIEF AT THE
BEGINNING OF A DOUBTFUL UNDERTAKING IS THE ONE THING THAT INSURES THE
SUCCESSFUL OUTCOME...

FOCUS...

Please look me up. Google Marty Gartenberg. Open CML hope then go to “The
Window”

Thanks both of you, Richard and Marty for your concern!!! I am doing OK and

Life is beautiful no matter what.  As I look back, I know that I am lucky

Hi Richard and Maria,

Richard, whenever we can get out of bed then it really is a good day. When
I was a young child my father taught me that every day is a good day unless
someone that we love dies.

Maria, isn't it a shame that we all have to be dealing with insurance
companies that may denigh us some life saving medications? This is simply
unacceptable. I do hope that all of this will be worked out for you and
everyone else that this may be happening to.

18's,

Marty
