I was diagnosed 3/04 during a routine blood test(17 wbc), after BMB(31 wbc) and started on 400 Gleevec and have been ever since. A BMB at 1yr showed no Luekemia cells. I go for a checkup with my Hem-Onc this thursday.
I have not seen this problem in any of the previous posts. From the time I started gleevec, I've developed a terrible snoring problem. My husband sometimes has to leave the bedroom & I can be heard through bedroom walls. Has anyone else had this problem? I'm not sure if it may have to do with the weight gain from gleevec and if a water pill might help?
I'd appreciate any input.
Thanks,
