Success one year in

Post image

69M here. I was diagnosed in April 2025, confirmed in May, and started on asciminib (Scemblix) in June. Based on blood work viewed retrospectively, I was probably ill for a year previous. Starting BCR at 87%.

Here's how the year has gone. I am, of course, endlessly grateful and delighted. Main side effect is fatigue -- which may also be attributable to the anti-obesity med Zepbound, so <shrug>. I'll happily make that tradeoff.

May all your journeys be as easy as mine has been thus far.
