Dealing with Medication Side Effects: Seeking Advice

My oncologist changed my chemo type due to some side effects I was having

I started on sprycel. Already had congenital heart issues and sprycel made me swell and get very short of breath. I was switched to gleevec. I still swell but not as bad

Unfortunately there wasn't one for me cause I have flt3 and Mnp1 mutations

I had severe side effects with gleevec but was strongly encouraged not to switch because of a pre-existing heart condition and the fact that switching around isn’t the safest option. Hope you can work through the side effects! Please reach out if you’d like to talk ❤️ I was diagnosed in 2016.
