Guest guest Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 Hi all, I would like to share with you what Rockefeller now says about taking Gleevec breaks. Hi Zavie, I have not been cycling (except very sporadically, for short times like 2 weeks) since 2 summers ago, because I had a brief period of PCR positivity right after one drug holiday. I no longer subscribe to the rationale that I wrote to you whenever that was - mainly because it obviously didn't work in my case. I still don't think it hurts to take brief breaks from time to time assuming one has been PCRU for a few years and hasn't had a complicated course of CML, but I no longer believe it's a pathway to killing off the last of the stem cells. Fortunately a number of other ways of doing so are in the works, so I remain ever optimistic. Nice to hear from you. Best wishes, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
