Recovery time after cervical polyp removal
Hi, I have a hospital appointment to remove a small cervical polyp. If you’ve had this procedure, how long after were you able to do physical activity, such as heavy lifting or walking a strong dog that pulls occasionally? Did the hospital insist that someone accompanied you home after the procedure

Aggressive CLL - Richter's Transformation
Hi Everyone, My father was diagnosed with aggressive CLL with PLL (prolymphocytic leukemia--where the cancer is present in immature white cells) and paraimmunoblastic features in March 2020. The first-line treatment was obinutuzumab/venetoclax but after a year on this treatment, his disease has turned

Does the haematologist really know what he's talking about?!
So? Does he? CLL ten years, W&W. Ivig every 4 weeks. Last November, kidney biopsy. Cryoglobulinemia! So the cryo kicks up symptoms not necessarily related to CLL. Blood test numbers all roughly within perimeters, except immunoglobulin, 1.49! The haem just shrugs his shoulders when I ask cryo questions

Spike Antibody Test Results
I got the results of my Semi-Quantitative Covid Spike Antibody test (LabCorp). I DO NOT have CLL. I am a healthy 66 year old. I took the test 6 weeks after my second Pfizer shot. The result was >250. (Interpretation says <0.8 is negative, >0.79 is positive. I guess that means I am very positive.

5 months today
Hi All I can't believe I've reached 5 months smoke free today and I don't really think about smoking anymore. For those struggling I know how hard it is but you have to want to stop, for me my last chest infection was the last straw. I knew I had to stop and I am still trying to regain some lung capacity

Worthwhile: an article, a presentation, and a table
The article focuses on NOTCH1 (and also -2 and -4 as these are involved in CLL) both mutated and activated forms as applicable. I refer to these collectively as NOTCH. The article includes among other things how NOTCH can point to limited effectiveness of ibrutinib (once you start treatment), on how

CLL with “normal” FISH
Hello so while I am diagnosed with CLL, my FISH was normal meaning any abnormalities were not present in amounts sufficient to be detected. And while my diagnosis is recent, I have probably had CLL for five years without knowing it because my lymphocyte count has been high enough all along. It’s only

CAR-NK and me
I came to MD Anderson to take part in the CAR-NK trial. I am a good candidate: in July my marrow involvement was 5%. Natural Killer cells don’t return to the marrow so CAR-NK doesn’t do much in the marrow. The lymphodepleting chemo given before the CAR-NK infusion might, however, clear the marrow a bit

Vaccines and CLL/SLL plus
Can people with CLL and an active SLL but also with other chronic conditions like Mast Cell activation syndrome,CFS and Hashimoto take the Pfizer vaccine, along with multiple allergies to foods and medicines, could take the vaccine ? What about if the Lymphatic system is congested with little tumors?

Watch & Wait versus the risk of Richter’s
I am newly diagnosed. No “B symptoms”. I have probably had this for a few years already given that my lymphocytes have been sufficiently high to “qualify”.

Blood work suddenly normal

Are CLL patients are kept in priority for COVID vaccination?
My wife is living with CLL and she is 50 years old now and she is under w & w condition. We live in Ontario, Canada. She has to go to Asia in May 2021 for a month. So far my knowledge is a concern, I do not know about the special privileges for vaccination to CLL people in Canada. I heard the government
