Hello everyone, I hope this thread finds all well. My son who is 25 that has CML, he was diagnosed at 18. He has now been on spyrcel for 2 weeks now. He failed Gleevac after the first year and has recently failed tasignia. I believe that is bc he wasn't taking it like he should. But that's another story. My question is, he is having severe stomach pain along with nausea and diarrhea for 5 days now. I know from what I have read that it is a side effect. But has anyone else experienced this with this medication and will it subside or will this be chronic for him?
Thank you for your responses and God bless you all.
