Guest guest Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 Hi All, I am also changing to TAsigna, it arrived in the mail today. Yesterday I had an EKG apparently this is protocol. My onc wanted me to change meds as I am still not PCRU after 3 years on Gleevec (almost tho). He really wanted me to go on Sprycel but I was not wanting to as I think in general I read better stuff from you all about Tasigna. Boy I hope I made the right decision. Downunder said to be sure and take the 2 weeks off in between which I was really looking forward to (it's been a week so far) and I cut the grass for the first time in 3 years yesterday. Alas he changed his mind and said I have to start taking the Tasigna immediately but I think I will just give myself a couple more days I am worried about the not eating before and after as this is so different to Gleevec which I always had to take on a very full stomach, but I guess I will adjust. I am so excited about the prospects of being the old me, yesterday marked my 3rd anniversary of having CML it was a sort of melancholy day. Tammy you posted that Gleevec is no longer going to be the first choice, so will it be sprycel or tasigna I wonder!
