Acalabrutinib

I have been taking Acalabrutinib now for over 2 years and am still suffering from heavy night sweats up to 2 times a night. This is despite my blood test results continually improving. Yet the sweating is absolutely drenching so have to wash & change in the middle of the night. Is this normal? Does anyone else suffer anything similar? Ironically my haematologist started me on Acalabrutinib because she said it would help with the sweating, but I cannot see any improvement.

I had the same and know how awful those are. but fortunately for me, after starting Calquence, they vanished pretty quickly. Best of luck. Hopefully you will get some relief soon.
