Stage 0 CLL, trisomy 12, diagnosed 2018. I always got post nasal drip with my ragweed allergy as a teen till 1999. Did bee pollen cure for awhile. I think allergy slowly came back... And set off the cytokines which increased into a reoccuring seasonal (about 2 seasons a year) sinus infection, high fever, sore throat, grotesquely increased lymph swelling in neck due to poorly made white blood cells started in 2011. 2018 - They tested a lymphnode that wouldn't shrink enough after antibiotics and cpac....And that is how I got diagnosed with cll. We are treating the allergy in hopes of getting ahead and bypassing a reaction.

Hi MamaAlto2,

We all wish you the best of luck in trying to tame your immune system, especially the autoimmune issues.

For me it's like dealing with a 13 year old child, I never know what will happen next.
