RE: Hello! And Tasigna Info Needed

[Guest guest]

Barb,

I had that same shaky feeling when I started Gleevec. My Oncologist told me to

take B12 vitamins and after about a month, the shaky feeling stopped.  I've been

taking them ever since.

Subject: [ ] Hello! And Tasigna Info Needed

Hi CML Family! Barb here. It's been a long time since I posted. I hope this

finds everyone doing great!

I am looking to see if any of you have switched from Gleevec to Tasigna? I just

did . . . 400 mgs twice a day. My side effects are a bit different on the

Tasigna - although the nausea and Diarhea are still a problem. I am finding I

have daily headaches - although they seem to be getting better - as well as

shaking. Sometimes just my hands - but also my entire body feels a bit " shaky " .

It's very odd!

If anyone can share their Tasigna thoughts / side effects with me - it would be

appreciated!

Sending all my best to each of you!

Love and Prayers!

Barb
