I’m eligible for treatment free remission this coming November and am leaning toward it. What kind of side effects?

I had been on Tasigna many years and went off of in Nov I am thrilled that I have stayed in remission but was not expecting the painful TKI withdrawal. Of course I have been on this drug starting with Gleevec since 2005 so, this is probably why it has hit me so hard. I still suffering from terrible joint, muscle, and skeletal pain. It is suppose to eventually go away but scares me that it wont. It has really affected my life.
