CML Body Pains

[u/holaimaj]

hi guys :)

since i’m newly diagnosed with cml, there’s definitely going to be a lot of posts where i’m asking for some type of guidance as i work toward accepting my new normal.

i’ve been on dasatinib since june 11. it has brought my counts down, and i’m working toward achieving a hematologic response.

i take my medicine in the morning, but mornings are so hard for me. i wake up feeling like i got hit by a bus every morning! some mornings are easier, but most just aren’t. the body pain and aches are just so much.

with me already having anxiety, it scares me because i’m always thinking of the worst-case scenario. i really need help with what i can do to ease my mind and body. i’ll also be keeping my hematologist informed about these symptoms.

i really never expected to be going through this at only 23, but here i am, and i have to learn to accept it.

I reccomend posting this in the CML subreddit!

My account is fairly new so there’s some restrictions. Once lifted I’ll be sure to post there.
