Guest guest Posted January 24, 2007 Report Share Posted January 24, 2007 Hi, Welcome to the group. Yes we have heard of Sprycel. Some members of the group are taking it but there is another board that is dedicated to topics of Sprycel. You can check it out here: http://www.newcmldrug.com/bms_discuss/default.asp I can tell you that many people have reported having headaches on Sprycel but the headaches do eventually stop. Sometimes it can take a couple of weeks though.

Guest guest Posted January 24, 2007 Report Share Posted January 24, 2007 Neti Pot, I have never heard of it. Do you inhale it or flush like you would saline? Glad to know that after you adjust to Sprycel you felt better than Gleevec at 800 mg.

I did not have the headaches (except maybe a couple minor ones) but other people do have this as a side effect. You can connect up with a whole group of people who are taking Sprycel on www.newcmldrug.Spr then click on left hand column on Sprycel Talk ask the question there and you will get some responses about what people have done for the headaches. Sometimes they are caused by sinus congestion, if that is the case, you can rinse your sinuses with what is called a Neti Pot........find it at a health food store, it comes with directions. At first I felt worse on Srpycel than I did on 800mg of Gleevec.....At first I feel better than Gleevec. C. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
