Two months now with SLL and some swelling of nodes on the right side of my neck. My question is I am beginning to have headaches on the right side of my face/eye. Can this be the result of my disease?

Don, the swelling of the nodes are most definitely part of your SLL, or infection related, which can also be related to SLL because of the immunodeficiency that is a part of CLL/SLL.

As for the headaches, and facial pains, it would be prudent for you to call for an appointment.

One possibility with the eye and facial pain could be shingles. If I were you, I would not wait any longer to get a professional assessment of the pain.

I hope you will keep us informed as to the outcome of an appt.

And, WELCOME to the site. Feel free to share and to ask questions. We are all in this together.
