Tasigna/skin

[Guest guest]

I was surpried to read that Tasigna effects the same enzyme as Gleevec.

My skin is so different now that I'm on Tasigna. My skin has color, tans,

and is not so fragile. When I was on Gleevec, I feel that I was pale as a

ghost, did not tan, and my skin would tear or cut very easily. I was always

bleeding over something minor like a bump. Not anymore. I'm hoping

things stay the way they are because so far I am doing well on Tasigna and feel

much better than I did on Gleevec. No fluid retention or diarrhea either.
