Hi, I don't know the answer -- but since both CML and Gleevec toxicity produce anemia because of marrow suppression, maybe it's not possible to tell the difference. E.g., both would show a low reticulocyte count.
This full text paper on anemia from Gleevec https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/ajh.23879 shows that other signs such as red blood cell size can vary, so that doesn't seem to help. Sorry.
Is it possible that after taking gleevec for only two weeks WBC droped from 36.7 to 7? All other blood counts are also came back to normal range. Could doctor make mistake in diagnosis of CML? Maybe I should get seg second opinion?
I was diagnosed with CML and given Gleevec 400 ml. After taking gleevec for 2 weeks doctor took additional blood test. My WBC dropped from 36.5 to 7.1 and all other blood counts came down to normal range. I'm wondering if gleevec could give such fast hematological response or I was possibly misdiagnosed originally. I don't and didn't have any symptoms, my spleen and liver weren't enlarged, no enlarged lymph. Should I get second opinion asap? Please, help me.
After two weeks on 400mlg gleevec my WBC droped from 36.5 to 7.1. My doctor told to come for additional test in two weeks. Now my WBC is 1.3 and absolute neutrophils count is 0.04. I was told to stay home on antibiotics. How long it may take for my counts to clime back to safe range. And of course, I'm off gleevec right now. Does it seem that dose of 400mlg is too high for me.
Am on Gleevec 400mg, now having problems with blisters on the palm. What can I do about it?
I was diagnosed last year and was immediatley put on gleevec 400mg/day.At my last consult my metabolic stats had risen,hence blood tests to determine if the gleevec is no longer working.I am still in firstphase and wonder what my options are if the gleevec is no longer an option.Amin pretty good form,just very tired and a lot of bone pain.
I have CML and was treated with Gleevec for 4 years and achieved remission. I have for the past several months been experiencing sudden onset of weakness which last for hours, to days. My blood pressure which has remained under control for several years with atenolol has been running 145/105 and higher for the past three to four months. I have a feeling of fullness in my stomach, and I have sporatic episodes of mild coughing, this occurs maybe once a week.
You might find he starts to be able to tolerate the pill. Gleevec is first choice for treating CML, and if he is doing good in every other way then encourage him that he is doing great.
I hope this helps you. I would be glad to help you with any other questions.
i get my heart checked every 2 weeks now and i am fine with the qt thing. i take the chemo pill called gleevec and have to force myself to eat so i dont get sick when i take it. how long will these withdrawel problems go on? i have xanax to take (1mg) but dont work to good. i should would appreciate any advice from any one on how to deal with these issues, family dr says its anxiety but i think its the withdrawels from the high dose of elavil.
During the illness, I took a course of antibiotics + antivirals - immunomodulators interferon synthesis inhibitors. These medicines affect the formation of antibodies or viral load or HIV seroconversion?
e, other possible cause) which never grew and a huge attack in 2000 (brain MRI with lesions and history of Optic neuritis, 2 sets of SSEPs 4 years apart both abnormal and median abnormal above syrinx site which had shrunk and finally spinal tap which previously only showed elevated lymphs now had elevated Igg synthesis and index (apparently elevated 10X lab normal). Moved to new town and had myoclonus badly which bothered new neurologist but has been resolved.
In meningiomas a conditioned medium of a neutralizing antibody is added against platelet-derived growth factor to see its effect on DNA synthesis—to know the cell activity basically—how fast the cells are diving and whether DNA synthesis of cells can be inhibited. Pronounced effects means that effect of something was more than expected—it could be the effect of the neutralizing antibody or any other signal or intensity they are testing. Please discuss this with your neurologist.
Take care!
My tap results had an elevated synthesis rate and bloodwork showed some elevation in sed rate. What does that mean?
I'm almost 7 weeks and have hypothyroidism. Doc will probably out you on synthesis to get it under control so you and baby can be healthier. I've been taking it for like 7 yrs lol but if you need it so does baby.
They can. OC-Bands indicate antibody synthesis in the CNS that is different from the antibody synthesis in the rest of the body, That is really all it means, so there are other CNS immune conditions that can cause OC-Bands in CSF.
and it makes Protein synthesis inhibitor antibiotics i mean is this medicine affected my body and the Hiv virus couldnt produce itself by using trna with replication and my Elisa test couldnt catch it...
Can it be like that and effect my body???
