Has anyone on Scemblix or Sprycel experienced an ulcer?

I'm sorry to hear you ended up in the hospital with such severe pain. That sounds really difficult, especially when you're already managing CML and trying your third medication.

While ulcers aren't specifically listed among the most common side effects of Scemblix (asciminib) or Sprycel (dasatinib), both medications can cause abdominal pain, which is a known side effect. Abdominal pain could potentially be related to gastrointestinal issues like ulcers.

Common side effects of these medications include:

Scemblix:
- Diarrhea
- Fatigue
- Muscle pain
- Low blood cell counts

Sprycel:
- Abdominal pain
- Nausea and diarrhea
- Headaches
- Fluid buildup

It's really important to let your cancer care team know about this severe pain and hospitalization right away if you haven't already. They may need to adjust your treatment plan, switch medications, or provide additional support to manage this side effect. Your quality of life matters, and there may be other CML treatment options that work better for you.
