Hi, Christopher here. I was just diagnosed with CML (Chronic Myeloid Leukemia) in August 2025. Started Dasatinib on Sept 2. Anybody else have comments, suggestions about my diagnosis?

Starting a new treatment can bring many questions and emotions, and connecting with others who understand this journey can be incredibly valuable. Many community members find it helpful to track how their body responds to treatment and to stay in close communication with their healthcare team about any changes they notice. This supportive community is here to share experiences and offer encouragement as everyone navigates their unique path forward.

I am not familiar with your diagnosis but I wish you the best. I did have 2 rounds of chemo and radiation so if you have any questions about that I will do my best to help you!
