Tasigna Buddies

[Guest guest]

Hello all you warriors!

I am curious, those of you on tasigna. I have been on 400 mg a day

since january. Until about a month ago, I felt like I was on a

honeymoon with the drug. I am beginning to experience muscle cramping

in my hands and feet. This is a first with the drug. In all the

reading I have done, I do not see where it is mentioned as a side

effect. I also take diazide for fluid build up around the knees,

joints and things. I do read that fluid retention is a side effect but

slight. If I don't take the diazide, I hurt. I am wondering if anyone

else on tasgina is having these side effects. I have been sooooo good

for soooo long and I am just a bit scared that those nasty side

effects I had with gleevec are going to return with Tasigna...

Anyone have any input?

Blessings on you all,

Barb
