Understanding PET Scan Results with CLL
Hello! I was diagnosed with CLL (11Q) in 2013. On Ibrutinib since 2015 and have very thankfully done very well with basically zero problems. CT scans have showed some mild increase in nodes over the last several years. Doctor ordered a PET Scan. I have the results. What would indicated Richter's

Hi all, I haven’t posted in a while. I am after some thoughts on results really.. I am based in the UK. Diagnosed in Oct 2022 after a chance blood test for something else. A familiar story from what I have read. A specialist at the time said I was a bit early for the disease! I’m now nearly 50. I

Beta 2 Microglobulin
Hi. I'm considering getting a Beta 2 Microglobulin blood test done. I have CLL and on W&W. Has anyone else had this done?

A potential game-changer for CAR T cell therapy: mutations in cancer engineered to beat cancer
CAR T therapy has been successful in some acute blood cancers. Response rates, however, are considerably lower in CLL and solid tumours, with T cell exhaustion and antigen escape being shared issues. A potentially game-changing advance in solid tumour CAR T technology may therefore be relevant to CAR

Hematocrit and CLL
Is it typical to have high hematocrit with CLL?I was diagnosed in 2020 with a favorable prognosis. I see oncologist each 4 months. It's the longest interval she permits. My last appointment I had: WBC 15.0 HCT 51% My MD has suggested possibly (about a year ago but nothing since then) taking hydroxyurea

To Trial or not to Trial?
I have decided not to trial. Going to just do the Venetaclax & Obin protocol. I’m just not in the mood for the extra appointments and brain damage that invariably comes with them. I’m waiting for a start date. Had the bone marrow biopsy and endless other tests this week - decided not to peek at the

Immune system changes during BTKi treatment
Hi, as a relative newbie here, please forgive me if this is a really naive question. I am soon to begin treatment with a BTKi drug. I know that having (a mutated form) of CLL means that my immune system is significantly suppressed and that BTKi treatment will further inhibit the immune system. My haematologist

MRD Results
My hubby's CLL Dr called today and gave us the good news. My hubby's blood has zero CLL, and his bone marrow dropped 25% to .12%. His Dr wants him to keep taking his venetoclax and acalabrutinib so that his bone marrow gets CLL lower or totally out. To date, my hubby will be on this treatment 1 year

Venetoclax
Hi all Well we finally got to see a specialist. They did a bone marrow biopsy which showed 50% CLL infiltration on top of the pancytopenia. They have suggested treatment with Venetoclax only which they have said may reduce the frequency of transfusions which is currently weekly. I have only ever

Is it ok to smoke marijuana or to take edibles with cll?
It gives me relief from general anxiety and unsettling feeling of going to a medical facility. Has anyone had any experience with using this for the two reasons mentioned above? Thank you.

Should I be worried?
Hi All, my Haemo Lady, just called me with my Bone Marrow Biopsy results, She, said they were heavily infiltrated with CLL. A recent body scan also showed a large lump in my stomach, she is not sure if it is related to my CLL, or perhaps an aggressive lymphoma. She has ordered a needle biopsy of this
