Now that I think of it i sometime get more anxious than usual. A lower dose in therory would help. I am not sure though,

How long have you been having this anxiey?

You can call Pharmacyclyics to discuss. They have nurses to talk to,

About 2 months. Stopped taking Imbruvica for 6 days and it did improve a little. Will start taking meds again tomorrow will see what happens.

Drink much caffeine? I drink green tea and too much makes me more jittery.

I'm back on Imbruvica after 6 days off. My anxiety improved but I've got enlarged lymph nodes. Dr. reduced dosage. I drink a lot of water and sometimes herbal tea. Green tea is good but it has to be caffeine free, I have the same problem if it's regular.
