I had my one week checkup today, all is fine, "counts" are good, I
have no side effects at all.

I stopped all my other drugs (hydroxyurea, allopurinal and procrit)
when I started the Glivec. I don't feel any different physically at
all yet, but I have been feeling good, almost "normal" for quite a
while now, even before the Glivec. My biggest complaints recently
are fatique and pitiful short term memory. Hopefully I'll see
improvements in those symptoms soon.

My daily dose is at, and has been, 400 mg.

I am one very happy "happy camper" to be in this particular Glivec
study!
