Guest guest Posted September 22, 2008 Report Posted September 22, 2008 Thanks for the reply. I think the honeymoon is over for sure.I will say as you do, they are not nearly as bad as gleevec. But with gleevec, they increased with intensity over the 5 years I took it. I am somewhat fearful that the systemic side effects will begin again, to increase as gleevec did. I guess I am jumping into the cart before the horse though??? I am so grateful for the remission that I feel somewhat guilty complaining. Quality of life is so important for all of us, no matter the stage we are in. I am glad to hear ( and sad at the same time) that I am not the only one who expreiences these. Makes me feel like I am not going crazy!! I am going on a diet and beginning to exercise at the gym again. It includes drinking a lot of water... wish me luck. I will let you know how it affects the side effects. Thanks for the info. Blessings Barb Quote
