My pulse has slowed down to 65-70 instead of 105 and up. I am now getting headaches and stomach aches really bad. Diarrea too. I have noticed I am tired alot more too. Not sure if I can handle the side effects.

Removed Patient as Caregiver because suspect severe side effects, stated as rare. Mental state alarming! Dr, disagrees. Patient has CML on Gleevac 400.MRI not possible. Had CT scan showing nothing except slight dementia.How long to get out of system???
