Hi all,
I don't post often on here, but when I have done it's usually been me stressing about my slow response!
I was diagnosed in Dec 2019, and after just over 2.5 years I've finally reached MMR.
I started on Imatinib, but failed that after about four months and switched to Dasatinib 100mg daily, which I've been on since, despite some bumps on the road and blips in my BCR ABL readings.
I just wanted to check in again, and say thanks for your support. I'm an anxious type but hearing from similar posters in my age bracket (I was 41 when diagnosed) with a similarly slow response (@alexmcpee and others) but eventually reaching MMR has been immensely reassuring!
And similarly I just wanted to pass on my encouragement to others who might read this who are presently in this situation - even if initial results are not very encouraging and if your response is a slow one like mine, it's still possible to reach MMR eventually.
All the very best,
Phil
