Guest guest Posted January 19, 2007 Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 Hello my name is , I don't post often but I read everyone's post. I am 25 years old and I was diagnosed with CML in November 2003. I have been taking Gleevec 400mg since the day I was diagnosed. Not to many side affects bone pain in the beginning but that went away after about 2 years. I get a little sick sometimes after taking Gleevec but nothing to major. My PCR has been good since January 2006, and continue to look good. I went in for my 4 month appt. and my doctor is pushing me to talk to the transplant specialist in case the Gleevec stops working. They have already called me back today to set up an appt. to talk about the procedures of transplant and to get my siblings testes. I am very scared and confused and not sure what to do. I would to hear your comments. DX 2003, at the age of 22 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
