I am experiencing swollen glands in my neck which are quite uncomfortable ,any ideas on how to ease the discomfort.

I have been on w and w for just over a year but it looks like I will be starting treatment soon .I have been sent information on different trials as the hospital I go to has 4 different options .

Same thing happened to me. I saw a CLL specialist who I trust totally. He did more tests, scans and bloods and we agreed to go for a trial. I was disappointed that I got the FCR control side, but 5 cycles of chemotherapy done and one one to go. Glands down and feeling much better. Not so grim as I thought at first. See your specialist all the best.
