Hello,
I was just diagnosed with CML in January. I had one complaint or another for over a year but my GP always explained it away and never did a CBC. Finally I made appointments with specialist but never made it to them because I was so miserable. I went to the URGENT Care and it was there that I found out that my spleen was huge and my white count was 211.
I am currently on Hydrea waiting to be for assistance so that I can be switched to Gleevec.
So hello everyone I am so happy this site is here. I usually try to find answers on my own or wait to ask the doctor but it is always nice to have someone in the same boat to talk to.
I know that I am blessed to be alive and that even though I have CML I know it could be a lot worse.
Take care everyone.
M
