How to request test for chromosome 17p deletion, TP 53 mutation; unmutated immunoglobulin heavy chain variable region (IgHV) in Canada?
We live in Brampton, Ontario in Canada. My wife diagnosed with CLL in Dec 2020. We did not have the opportunity to talk to a hematologist in person and appointment only by phone and the Hematologist said it is CLL and nothing to be worried just the w & w situation. When I start questioning further

Does green tea extract (EGCG can) reduce WBC in CLL?
I have read some positive things about green tea extract to treat CLL so our Hematologist said just W & W but we could not stop and search about the CLL and its alternative methods of treatment from food and tea etc. Finally, we found that EGCG is useful to reduce the WBC or postpone development symptoms

Chlorambucil
I had Chlorambucil along with Rituximub infusions which put me in remission for 2 years. The only side effects were nausea. They tried me initially on Obinutzumib but I had anaphylaxis and it was terminated. Hope this helps. Jan x

Antibody test
I just got my 2nd covid vaccination, Moderna. I would like to get an antibody test in a few weeks to make sure it did the job since they don't know yet whether the vaccine will work with CLL. Has anyone else done/ considered this idea? Is it even feasible?

Thalassemia beta trait and elevated platelets
I was referred to a haematologist last year as the blood test results from my annual health screen came back with some abnormal results. I have thalassemia trait so my blood results are never normal but my GP noted that my platelets were elevated at 489. I looked back at some older blood tests and

I have no information, and have been googling prognoses and crying constantly. I don’t know what I’m dealing with at all. Will I be around to see

Top-speed antibody development.
The development of biopharmaceuticals is a long and expensive process. A decade or more can elapse between the discovery of a new protein-based active ingredient and the release of a new drug. One major hurdle on this journey is the passage from the lab to clinical trials. As a rule, it takes between

Should I push harder for tests to rule out essential thrombocythemia?
I have a complex medical history, mixed connective tissue disease, RA, eosiniophilc esophagitis, hypopituitarism, adrenal insufficiency, exercise anaphylaxis, a bunch of things that are unrelated, some serious, some annoyances. I have extremely high bone density, so have degenerative spinal disease

Interferon therapy in the management of myeloproliferative neoplasms
Time on treatment analysis demonstrated that every year on interferon reduced the risk of progression to myelofibrosis (MF) by 9% (HR 0.91 [95% CI, 0.87–0.95]; p < 0.001), and was associated with a mortality risk reduction by 6% per year (HR 0.94 [95% CI, 0.90–0.99]; p < 0.012).
