Still undetectable on 25 mgDasatinib!Scuba was right!

Tanya from Australia here.Just wanted share am still undetectable on 25mg Sprycel,thanks to this informative site,and Scuba!So thank you!Am staying on 25 mg,will keep taking Tumeric,Vitamin D,Magnesium,and hope that in due time,may be able try TFR.

... try telling that to my wife .... i.e. that I was right!

Very pleased you have found what is working for you. Others will need a little more, maybe even less to get to what works.

How is your doctor reacting? surprised?

Hiya Tanya ,fabulous news do you feel any better with the lower dose ,bet your doctor wasn't happy being proved wrong .I am just waiting for my latest blood results .My Doc scared of reducing my dose to 20mg she agreed on 40 mg .I will wait for this result and maybe reduce a little more if it's still undetectable as I have really bad shoulder pain ,wonder if it might go on lower dose .We can live in hope .Keep well ,Denise x.

Haven’t seen Doctor due shes Asian and has many Asian clients so has cancelled our last 2 appointments,due Corona Virus so she just sends me blood forms and then she emails me.Denise,I sent my Doctor all the infoon lower  dose Sprycel that Scuba has posted here,and she was hesitant but agreed with my lowering dose.I am grateful she is willing to listen to other information.I think you need lower dose too.Bone pain was dreadful for first couple weeks on lowered dose,better now and yes,Thank God,side effects have lessened.Most of the time am travelling ok these days,much better than on Glivec.Let me know what happens with you and yr doc.How long you been undetectable?

Haven’t seen her for months,Scuba,due Corina virus.Shes Asian as are most of her patients.Pretty sure she would be most surprised (and pleased:) that lower dose Sprycel is working,as she had not heard of that before,and she’s never had anyone TFR.I hope be her first:).Are you TFR,Scuba,and how is it going?

I am about to be TFR. I actually went without Sprycel this month awaiting a prescription refill. I had a PCR blood draw this morning. We'll see if I remain undetected after one month. I may just continue like this or not. I haven't decided.
