"A smile costs nothing, but gives much- It takes but a moment, but the memory of it usually lasts forever. None are so rich that can get along without it- And none are so poor but that can be made rich by it. It enriches those who receive, without making poor those who give- It creates sunshine in the home, Fosters good will in business, And is the best antidote for trouble- And yet it cannot be begged, borrowed, or stolen, for it is of no value Unless it is given away. Some people are too busy to give you a smile- Give them one of yours- For the good Lord knows that no one needs a smile so badly As he or she who has no more smiles left to give." ~Author Unknown

Close Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML)
I am 41 years old, married with two daughters, and was diagnosed with CML in May 2007. I am currently on Gleevec and doing pretty well, but with some side effects that seem to be getting better. I would love to talk with others who have the same.
Treatments
- Gleevec Working / Worked
- In the beginning, I had a mild rash that subsided fairly quickly. Also I had the metal taste that has gone away. The worst part was the arm and leg pain that I felt in my bones. It also has gotten better and now I just deal with facial swelling and eye swelling. I still feel tired, but I am also still a little bit anemic.
