Lymph Nodes

Evening!

I have a question to the regulars on CML Support and am hoping for some help to my query...

I've been on Desatinib for only 2 weeks now after being on Gleevec for 18 months. All is very well with me and no side effects just yet to inform the doctor. However, yesterday I started feeling a little sore under my right arm and after I inspected, felt the lymph node was a bit sore and swollen. I have a slight temperature now and not feeling too well (2 hours of tennis may have something to do with it...)

Anyone know if it's side effect of Sprycel and if I should contact the docs??

Cheers, MJS

Matt

Given that you are only two weeks into the new treatment, I would as a precaution just get yourself checked out. Even if it is to dismiss any association with the new drug.

Hope you feel better soon
