Good Morning,
Well I went on Tasigna and in 3 days and I got Pancreatitis, and man is that a painful thing. It's like the spleen pain only maybe a little worst. I didn't go to the doctor immediately thinking it was side effects since abdominal pain, and back ache was listed. I won't do that again. I guess my enzymes were pretty high! I was out of work the whole week but I did loose 10# that was the good news. So I go back to the doctor Tuesday and he is deciding what the next plan of action is. If he should put me on a lower dose or go to the next drug. I became resistant to Gleevec about a month or so ago. And I did get my first break in medicine for a whole week even though I was so sick I still felt better. I can't believe the hair sensitivity it really hurts but of coarse that was the first week, fatigue and leg pain.
So the adventure continues.
Cathy
