Hi all,

Just received the results from my latest bmb after being on the Ariad trial for

9 months. The drug continues to do its job and I am undetectable!

So far, my side effects are minimal and manageable and I continue to go about my

life as normal.

Woo hoo!

Hi Beth, marvelous, simply marvelous!!  I am not undetectable yet, but close

enough and have been on Ariad since April 13, of last year.  I love this drug,

the 2 hr before and after fast gets a bit tough as I love to eat, but it sure

beats the nausea of Gleevec.  As wonderful a drug as Gleevec is, it is great

that we are going to be able to add another drug to the alternatives. 

Continued good luck, love, Bobby
