Myelofibrosis - thank you for the support
A few days ago I posted about my new diagnosis of post ET Myelofibrosis and I just want to say thank you for all the responses and support I received. Without this forum I would feel quite lost. I'm feeling absolutely exhausted today, as if having my morning shower was enough exertion for one day. However

Hibernation mode, painful hands and fuzzy eyesight.
Well as you can guess by the heading this is a bit of me at the moment. Probably not helping myself as I've been trying to do some embroidery at the moment in an effort to distract myself from other things namely the crazy itching. Maybe I'll get the sewing machines out and make myself some much needed

Revolution of Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia Therapy: the Chemo-Free Treatment Paradigm
February 2020 A long paper and too much information to be able to summarise in this post but a nice account of current treatments, response rates, trial details and issues of resistance/intolerance.

ET progressed to Myelofibrosis
I was discharged from hospital yesterday, originally admitted with shortness of breath but was soon diagnosed with Myelofibrosis. It was a huge shock as my haematologist has repeatedly told me that my falling blood counts could not be MF as my WBC were falling. I was treated by a different consultant

Time-to-progression after front-line FCR for CLL: a retrospective, multicohort study
It has been known for some time that FCR can produce very long remissions (perhaps cures) for some patients with mutated CLL. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4760129/ This study looks at unmutated patients and could be an important study for CLL patients or, on the other hand, completely

Do all novel drugs "clear" CLL cells in blood, lymph nodes and bone marrow?
Do all novel drugs (non-chemotherapy) "clear" CLL cells in blood, lymph nodes and bone marrow? Or perhaps some drugs clear CLL cells only in blood, but are unable to get into bone marrow?

has anyone been on exjade
You can all see my post from 2 or so weeks ago. I knew shortly after my iron levels were elevated due to transfusions. Ferritin is also an inflammatory marker but my total iron combining capacity has also been rising steadily ( TIBC). I cannot reduce my transfusion dependency as I have gone down to 52

Disease Flare During Temporary Interruption of Ibrutinib Therapy in Patients with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia ( CLL ) - Pseudo Richters
Several of us have reported our CLL symptoms have come roaring back after discontinuing Ibrutinib/imbruvica with even a few cases of what's been termed pseudo-Richters, where some patients appear to have even undergone unnecessary R-CHOP chemoimmunotherapy as our member Priss69 has reported:
