Guest guest Posted February 8, 2007 Report Share Posted February 8, 2007 My co=workers dad was diagnosed Monday and the Doctor told him not to worry about it. Does that seem right?

Any and all of the questions that you have been asking on this list should be answered by your doctor. The longer you wait, the worse your outcome will be.

My blood counts refuse to stay above required thresholds. I need to have a plan B which preferrably is not a bone marrow transplant. Is Sprycel availiable in Canada or is it only in clinical trial? Would I most likely have the same problem on sprycel or does it bind differently than Gleevec does? If it is only in clinical trial does anyone know a trial that is recruiting?
