Increased symptoms

[MDINATL]

I've been diagnosed with CLL for 5 years now. No treatment other than supplements. I've been having overwhelming nausea every morning. Lightheadedness. Also short of breath with exertion. I had Covid last year and was on ventilator for 2 weeks and in hospital for few months. Not sure if it's residual from Covid or CLL. Anyone one else with these issues?

Hi MDINATL

I experienced similar symptoms just before I started my treatment with Ibrutinb in August 2017 as my hemoglobin was just below 10.

Have you had any blood tests done? it is possible you`ve become anaemic so I suggest you speak to either your doctor or a nurse specialist if you can.

Hope you can get sorted and feel better soon

I had covid, a light case, felt fluish a few days, lost taste and smell for weeks. I was vaccinated 3 months earlier!I'm in 3rd year of w&w and also often have morning nausea, occasional digestive nausea and lightheadedness. I see my oncologist in 3 weeks and plan to bring that up. If my upcoming blood work doesn't warrant treatment, I'll just continue taking something for nausea, chew mint gum after I eat and sit back & rest some for the lightheadedness. I sometimes take an decongestant assuming my sinuses are causing the lightheadedness. I live in a high humidity climate. Talk to your doctor and I send best wishes. Sandra 🙂

I was short of breath with exertion prior to treatment. My hemoglobin was low. Just walking up steps got me huffing and puffing.
