Hello benpanesar, welcome

Sorry to read that you are experiencing ongoing excruciating pain and neuralgia following a shingles reactivation. This is indeed a problem for CLL patients especially during and post treatment , the pain can be mind numbing, many of us can relate to that, it can take quite some time to recede. Are you receiving medications now to hold it back?

You are in the wars at the moment, your diagnosis of a secondary lymphoma and now having to experience a new type of watch & wait can't be easy, were you on W&W before your CLL treatemnt? ,

Lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma is a rare condition. you may not get a reply. If you have not already found them WMUK is the national charity supporting people with Waldenström’s macroglobulinaemia and those with lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma which is a subgroup, they have an active on-line community on their website wmuk.org.uk you can also email them through their site or at [e-mail] or ring their help line on 0208 2816477
