I have had a bacterial infection since January. It includes about 40 wounds on my arms, legs, butt. My doctor insists that if i take the acalabrutinib that it will heal it. I've had cll for 6 years and have not been on any treatment. I read the front page of acalabrutinib's website and it said that if you have an infection dont start taking this until it's over. you might die. I also have shortness of breath and had lung problems and was in the hospital for 21 days. I almost died.
I havent started acalabrutinib and I know my doctor is unhappy with me. I dont know what to do. Any insight on infections and acalabrutinib would help.
