Guest guest Posted November 8, 2009 Report Share Posted November 8, 2009 Hi All, My Father recently diagonalized and found CML. he is 70yrs old. Our cancer specialist started Veenat-400mg (equivalent to Gleevec)and after that blood count becomes getting normal every week. After starting the Imatinib(veenat) treatment the major change is nausea and he is reluctant towards food and earlier he was vomiting also. Now we have observed that hair growth is also stopped. Is this side effects of Veenat(even though its doing a great job)? he is very tired both mentally and physically after this treatment started because of less food and tension . If any one has experience same kind of issues ...please share..and please let us know is there anything better we need to do on this disease. doctor said that its in the starting stage and no chemo required. please put ur suggestions. thx jamy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
