ibrutinib. the white cells rise again.

[Ricotta]

Hello! Sorry for my English.

I have been taking ibrutinib for 6 months. no side effects. leukocytes returned to normal. But now they are rising a little again.

This is normal? how stable are your white cells?

and my platelets are dropping all the time (.

p. s. leukocytes for 6 months on ibrutinib decreased from 100 to 8.5. and now 10 are growing again. Please share your experience with me.

Ricotta, this isn't really an increase and I wouldn't be concerned unless they are higher at the next blood test. You don't say what has been happening with your platelets but please talk to your doctor if you are worried.
