Hi ray and all,  I have the same hallucinations others talk about, plus one
nobody's mentioned (I think): tactile delusions, in which, say, tile
grouting morphs into wavy strings I “feel” when I reach out to "touch"
them. That lasts a nanosecond and then the illusion's gone. It’s only
happened a  few Times.

 I did a little reading up on Tasigna. They appear to be going ahead at
Georgetown. The study is fully Enrolled. I Imaginethere are lots of Issues
to be worked out. First things first.
