Chronic Myeloid Leukemia: A Patient's Journey

Рет қаралды 93,034

Күн бұрын

Diagnosed six years earlier with chronic myelogenous leukemia, a cancer of the blood, Doug, now age 75, was told there was nothing the doctors could do for him. But he found new hope in an experimental treatment that signals the cancerous cells to stop duplicating -- effectively managing, though not curing, the disease. To learn more about CML and other blood disorders, visit ASH's patient resources webpage hematology.org/Patients/.
This clip was excerpted from the documentary film "Blood Detectives." To learn more about the film, visit www.hematology.org/Publication...

Try giving at least your prayer to Benny Hinn's Christian Ministry. God gives me healing when ever I pray for this ministry and when I donate to it. The website is www.BennyHinn.org Check it out , I am so greatful for God's healing when i give to this ministry. Plant a spiritual seed by giving to this ministry and wait for your harvest. I did and in just one or two days I felt much much better. I will always give to this ministry when I need healing. I hope everyone tries it if they need healing.

I been on it for ten years it show no side of Cml but I still have it.I suffer from bone pain and muscles pain all day.I have to take pain pills(morphine,roboxin,nerve pill which from side effects but I am working 40hr and it help with pain.It makes me depressed because every year although my insurance pay 90percent I still got to find help with copay and it is scary because I can not miss five days or it come back.I hope I didn’t bored anyone the pain makes me depressed about it not the cancer itself just side effects.It is sad that you got to find someone to pay the 1936.00 Co pay.You got to pick your meds up just to tell you that your copay after six months is gone.That is where I am at today with six pills left and it takes five days to come back and when it does gleevce was a won’t help.That part nobody tells you.That is where I am at todo

HOLY CRAP SOMEONE ACTUALLY LOOKED AT MY CRAPPY BLOG!!! :D Thanks so much. It's all disjointed and all over the place...I blame the chemo for that : ) I actually blame the chemo for a lot of stuff that it probably has nothing to do with but it's a good excuse in my eyes...

I am a CML patient and I like to hear stories like this. I'm currently 28 and have been on Sprycel, made my Bristol-Myers Squibb, which is a second generation targeted chemotherapy. About 2 years in and my blood counts are still normal. Visit my website at csadlowski.weebly.com to read my blog which has some posts about living with CML. Be sure to bookmark it too as I add new content frequently.

Try praying for and donating to the Lords ministries. God gives me healing when I do. I do this whenever I need some healing. Here are some ministries: www.BennyHinn.org www.VoiceOfTheMartyrs.com www.CBN.com www.TheMissing.com ( Pray for their protection and salvation and all the kidnappers salvation) Yes , God gives me healing when I pray for the world everyday also. Hope this advice helps whoever may need it.

I can see it working good against CML, but not other cancers like stage 3/4 lung cancer because there are simply too many cancer genes that are active and encouraging cell division.
