Hi Arthur. Wanted to say hello to a fellow CMLer. Are you on a TKI? Where is U of M? If you are able to, I would consult with a CML specialist (hematologist/oncologist) and ask him/her all the questions you need answers to. Knowledge is power. IF I can help you with anything, please let me know. I'm nearing 9 years with CML. Take care, Susan (Blood-Cancer.com Team Member)

hello! I read you wanted help regarding your spleen enlargement. I am currently going through my second time of radiation used to decrease the size of my spleen because I am not a candidate for an operation to remove it. I hope this information helps you to ask your doctor about options. God bless

- I have CML, too, and am nine years in. I have been on Sprycel the entire time and just had my dosage lowered to 40 mgs.

Hey Jewels Nice to meet someone on here with the same strangely . I’ve had CML going on two years in September. It’s been a roller coaster to say the least. How has your journey been ? You have been on sprycel the whole nine years? Have you ever reach “remission”? What was it like in the beginning??
