For 20 years, Novartis has been committed to research in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML).
While today’s medications help many people with CML, some patients do not do as well.
If this sounds a lot like what you’re going through, be sure to check out the resources on this website and, sign up to receive updates about CML.
Track your CML journey
You may find it helpful to track your treatment for CML, whether it’s recording the results of blood tests, notes from speaking with your doctor, or simply how you’re feeling. Some people prefer to use a journal to capture their thoughts. Others use one of the many tracker apps available. One of these apps is called Belong—Beating Cancer Together.
As a social network for managing and navigating cancer treatment, the Belong app connects CML patients and caregivers. It’s anonymous and free.
You can download the Belong app from Google Play or the App Store. To learn more, visit www.belong.life
