Guest guest Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 Hi everyone, you know, it is truly amazing, to have cml as long as I have and finally reach the magic number. What is more amazing is how I feel. If I didn't have to drive to Ann Arbor once a month to see Dr. Talpaz, I would never know I have cml. I read about all of you and your fatigue and rashes etc., and I well remember those Gleevec Days. Gleevec is why I am here today, bad side effects or not, it saved the day for me and for most of you. Dr. Druker is my hero and will be forever for what he has given all of us. But I love this Ariad drug, it , for me, is very similar to Sprycel, I loved that one too until I had PE, but that took 1 1/2 years to get, so even though I am pcru I am keeping my fingers crossed that life goes on as it is and nothing changes. Thank you so much for all your congratulations , and I pray that Ariad will hit the market soon and be a blessing to everyone.
