Welcome and Ibrutinib is well known to cause pain caused arthralgia. It’s a well recognised and documented side effect as are skin problems. You perhaps need a different medical team if the medics you see are unaware of these things.
I have random leg pain but don’t think it CLL related . The RASH what a pain! I bought Benadryl cream and within 48 hours was gone I think truly important to drink The H2O it hard but I try somewhere between 1 1/2 to 2 gallons a day ask you doc for sure but I’ve been drinking that much for about a week before I started imbrutinib! 420mg 1x daily I think keeping my body flushed of dead cll cells etc has helped me extensively good luck!
I have been on a Ibrutinib for a little over a year. I have joint pain daily. It is a documented side effect of the drug. Not all users have pai and for many it goes away after a while. Good luck.
Drinking more water means that more passes through your kidneys, diluting any toxins from all the dying CLL cells and reducing the time your kidneys, bladder and connecting tubes are exposed.
aussie neil no one has ever told me to take xtra water if it will help i will give it ago they just tell you to take aglass ot water wen ure taking your ibrtinib
