CLL Treatment

[Flyfisher70]

I was dx with CLLOver 5 years ago. I have been on ibrutinib since. Now 76 years old. I cross-country ski, golf, paddle board and generally feel pretty darn well. My doctor tells me "you're awfully healthy except for that blood thing ". So hang in there.

That is great to hear. I was diagnosis with CLL 22 years ago. I have been on 5 different treatments so far and still going strong. Keep up the good work. Anna

Hi Flyfisher,

I am 77, CLL diagnosed 10 years ago, one treatment. Just back from a week at the coast and admiring the early morning stand up board paddlers! I would really love to give that a go! Very envious of you.

I love it. My doctors say if it wasn’t for CLL, I would be healthy. 😂 After starting Ibrutinib, I haven’t looked back. It has given me my life back. I am active doing the things I enjoy. I don’t know how long it will last but I’m enjoying each and every day. Great news. Sally

Great to hear life still goes on with CLL. You have a variety of interests. Must require mixing with a lot with people, although most are activities outdoors. Are you cautious around people? That is always my concern and limits many social activities.
