CLL and Bladder cancer , past used Ibrutinib, Acalabrutinib and Gyzava … all worked in controlling CLL …

BCG infusions for Bladder cancer working , I think….

I have developed what Dermatologist calls .. skin barnacles … she says it from past sun exposure…

Anyone have this problem ?? I suspect it is CLL or Cancer related.

Fish,

My Derm said it’s part of getting older. I told my wife and she thought it was funny and called me Barnacle Bill. 😡

How do they look? I know how real barnacles look like. Are these really similar to those?
