Not sure if I’m vulnerable or not

[-Jeryl-]

Good morning everybody

I ave had cll for approx 11 years ,regular blood tests and since diagnosed with immune suppressed thyroid and fibromyalgia.

I have not received a letter from nhs too say I’m vulnerable,so I’m not sure if I am or not .

I don’t think about my cll a lot but all of what’s happening in the world with the corona virus has brought back memories of how worried I was when I was first diagnosed with cll, I’m not worried but feel like iv been left on a shelf .

Silly and I do know there are far mor serious cases and other than tiredness and a problem between my shoulder blades with causes slot of pain ,drama queen again I’m afraid

Everyone with blood cancer, at any stage, is classed as vulnerable, and should be shielding. If you have not received a letter, do get in touch with your council via the website.

Hi

Anyone with any form of blood cancer is vunerable. I live in Spain and have not been out of the house in over 4 weeks. If one has any other underlying issure, like a mild form of asthma, then it is worse. Where I live in Spain, is amongst the olive trees and they are now in flower, so we have lots of pollen....masks must be worm at all times..

Stay safe.

Hi Jeryl, I know this post is quite old but I was wondering if you would describe your fibro symptoms and what triggers it. I have a similar situation to you in some ways and am wanting to compare. Thanks and I hope you're well.
