Guest guest Posted January 11, 2007 Report Share Posted January 11, 2007 I was reading the posts about radiation with interest. 10 years before my cml diagnosis I had some medical problems. Doctors couldn't find out what was causing a pleural effusion that I had. I was given many ct scans and x-rays. I was hospitalized with a chest tube and x-rayed daily for weeks. I remember saying " I'm going to glow in the dark. " Eventually, I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer of low malignant potential (a slower growing type). I had surgery and chemo. I recuperated and was fine until my cml diagnosis many years later. I blame all the radiation from the scans and x-rays, or maybe the chemo for the cml. What do you think? in NY dx. Jan. 04 400 mg.
