Okay-cant see any mention of this on Forum.

Has anyone been troubled by diarrhoea. I know Consultant & his registrar asked me every time I saw them  if I had diarrhoea.  I was & it was suggested  I see Gastroenterologist -which I haven't arranged yet, not ignoring symptom, just want to know if others have same.

Diarrhoea stopped to once a day  when I reduced fibre intake.

Know not a nice subject but diarrhoea type motion once a day.

Consultant told me diarrhoea was not a side effect of Imatinbib  however is listed among side effects.

Yep, me too, on & off over the years.  Immodium generally sorts it.

I've just started Imatinib (2 weeks)and consultant named this as a likely side effect. said to use Immodium if bothersome, but only I'm now only getting it once every other day, so just put up with it. I take Imatinib at lunch time, drink 1/2 pint water before and after. Try to keep diet simple. Hope yours gets better.
