Hi, I am not a medical person but I would have thought this was something to check out with your medical team, it must be really affecting you. The NHS has been quick to inform us that they are 'open for business' and I believe they are taking the precautions to keep patients safe. Also the Leukaemia Care Charity helpline is open Monday - Friday 9am until 5pm and they have a special evening service on a Thursday and Friday 7pm - 10pm. The number is freephone 08088 010 444. Take care of yourself

Hi, thanks for your message. If you have discomfort from a swollen stomach the important thing is to find out what is the cause of your stomach swelling. Swelling in the stomach can be caused my many different things so its important to get it checked out by your medical team so they can identify what's causing it and treat it accordingly. I would advise you to give your haematology team a call. Take care.
