I'm sorry to say that as this is a community for a cousin blood cancer CLL, we don't have personal experience of CML. You should follow up your concerns with your specialist, who I believe should be able to switch you to a different drug if Imatinib is no longer controlling your CML.
Some resources that a friend with CML recommends for information are nationalcmlsociety.org/patientpower.info/ and lls.org/ You don't say where you are from. These groups are US based, but might have information that would answer your question. I believe LLS has online advisors, and know that the US based CML group is connected to international advocates.
