I saw my consultant last Tuesday and got my six month supply of pills today. On opening the box I found it wasn't Glivec. I rang Alcura who said the hospital stated generic on the order. I spoke with the Macmillan nurse at the hospital and she said North Middx have moved over to generic and I should have been told. My consultant is useless so I wasn't surprised at not being told.
I was wondering if anyone else is now on generic and if they were told they'd be changed over.
I'd been undetectable at 0.000 for the last 4 years or so but in Sep 16 it was 0.002 and Dec 16 it was 0.2. I've been on 300mg of Glivec for two years. For the six years before I was on 400mg. My consultant wants to put me back on 400mg but I wanted to wait until the results of the next blood test are done. Are the results a big enough change to be concerned?
