Newly diagnosed
I was diagnosed in late September 2018 when I woke up with a bloody mouth and oral sores to find out my platelets were below 1,000.... was hospitalized for 3 days and given high doses of prednisone and IVIG treatments. When I left the hospital my numbers were 98,000 but I saw a steady drop back to 13,000

MUST READ for those on Ibrutinib/Imbruvica - concerning advice in pilot study on lower dosing - incl. danger of starting with a lower dose
I'm repeating in full, this very important advice posted by Dr Rick Furman in the CLL/SLL Groups.io forum, due to the risk of incorrect interpretation from a paper which Dr Furman says should never have been accepted for publishing. Dr Furman is well known for his early move to 'non-chemo' treatment

Rare diagnosis
I’m 39 years old and was just diagnosed with MADSAM neuropathy (Lewis Sumner Syndrome). Does anyone else have this? I know it’s extremely rare. Just wondering if anyone else on this site happens to have the same thing. I start IVIg treatments next week.
