Start date for Ariad - June

[Guest guest]

Hi to all,

 

I have a tentative starting date for the Ariad trial - June 1st or June 8th. It

will be good to get it going as I will be off work and have the whole summer to

get on a new schedule.  I remain in HR but my PCR is greater than 100%, Dr

Cortes sees no reason to remain on HHT as it hasn't given me any cytogenetic

response in 2 years - I agree.  Time to move on!!

 

I will keep you posted. In the meantime I am enjoying the vacation from drugs

and ending the school year. 

 

Does anyone have some recomendations on apartments to stay at here in Houston?

Cheaper would be greatly appreciated! : )

 

God Bless all of you.  I'll keep you posted.

HI JACKIE, THE BEST OF LUCK WITH ARIAD. DO YOU START ON 15 MG? OR 8?

TO ME THIS DRUG IS LIKE SPRYCEL, I DIDN'T HAVE THE HEADACHE THOUGH LIKE I

DID WITH SPRYCEL. I HAVE NO SIDE EFFECTS. WELL, MAYBE I DO, BUT AT MY AGE

IT'S HARD TO SAY ARE THEY BECAUSE 80 IS AROUND THE CORNER, AND I AM SUPPOSED

TO HAVE ACHES AND PAINS, OR IS IT THE DRUG? WHO KNOWS. I HAD A BMA/BMB

YESTERDAY, THAT WILL MAKE THE SECOND SO THEY WILL HAVE A COMPARISON. IT WAS

A DRY TAP, BUT THEY DID GET A PIECE OF BONE, SO THAT SHOULD HELP. I WILL

KNOW THE RESULTS SOON, AND PASS THEM ON.

GOOD LUCK, I PRAY THAT THIS DRUG LOVES YOU!!! BOBBY

Will you have to stay in Houston while you are on the trial?
