Hi Everyone
I have been on Imatinib for nearly 19 years and it has done wonders for me!
I started on 600mg per day, going down to 500mg because of eye-problems, then down to 400mg in 2011.
My side-effects have been consistent with the drug, which could have been much worse!
I have consistently had pain in my left foot ever since I started taking Imatinib - across the top and into the ankle.
It has got much worse over the last month and difficult to walk on. Have had an x-ray in the past & no sign of Arthritis.
Wondered whether anyone else has experienced this, and if so, what to do to help ease the pain. My consultant doesn't
agree it's the Imatinib, but I'm not convinced! Would appreciate any comments please.
