Hi Lori,

No, I've never experienced body pain as a side effect of either of the meds. I have almost constant feet and leg pain due to being hit by a drunk driver 20 years ago - but I've learned to live with that without pain meds. I know my limits - took years and I can't walk very far or be on my feet very long, but it is what it is.

I'm feeling wonderful on the half dose of Tasigna. I have energy and a clear mind, my skin has cleared up and I hardly notice any itchy scalp. I'm eagerly waiting for my January appointment to see what the blood test says after being on the 1/2 dose since Labor Day.

My October 20 appointment
