Close Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML)
I was diagnosed with CML on 2-2-07. I just finished chemo (hydroxyurea) and am on 400mg Gleevec. I am a bit anemic and will be starting weekly Procrit injections in a few days. Fatigue is my biggest issue, accompanied by numerous small aches & pains (muscles & joints, enlarged spleen). Fatigue during the day but trouble getting to sleep at night (it's 1:30 a.m.!). I've got an incredibly supportive wife who makes this pretty easy to face so far.
