Guest guest Posted March 11, 2010 Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 I have been taken gleevec since October 2007 and I am remission. I believe the bone marrow can reconstruct itself. I asked the doctor to see if I can stop taken Gleevec for awhile to see if my bone marrow is functioning normal again. He says I have to take Gleevec for the rest of my life. I know what is going to happen to my body eventually, I am going to die from all the toxic effects of Gleevec. I am thinking of stopping the medication for sometime, because the fatigue is too much for me. Has anyone of you thought about this, or has someone tried to stop? Your thoughts are appreciated, God bless you all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
