Taking Imbruvica in Spain

2 Replies

I live in Spain and have been recently diagnosed with Sll/Cll 17p deletion. Ive been taking Imbruvica for three weeks. As yet no side effects and feeling a lot better/ more upbeat.

I did have a couple of small bleeds a couple of days back. A bit of a spurt after my now regular bloods and similar following my daily heparin injection. I also have Thrombophilia and following two major pulmonary embolism last summer was put on Xarelto, but it's incompatible with Imbruvica,so my only other option is daily heparin injections.

Can't fault the Spanish Health Service.
