Travel insurance
Hi can anyone recommend travel insurance , going to America and the quotes I'm getting are hundreds of pounds 😫 I probably should have said I have mild Copd , but also gall stones , and what seems to be worst of all non alcoholic fatty liver, I do think this may be my biggest problem as far as insurance

Fenofibrate and kidney:Increase in serum creatinine
Fenofibrate has been used for the management of atherogenic dyslipidaemia for many years. Reports of fenofibrate-associated increases in serum creatinine (SCr) levels raised concerns regarding deleterious effects on renal function. Fenofibrate may not be a nephrotoxic drug. However, a close monitoring

8 months into OHSU drug trial (Obinituzumab, Ublituximab, Bendamustine) doing well!
Hello fellow CLL-ers! I haven't posted much, as we all know, balancing life and this disease proves challenging. I thought it might be time for an update in the New Year. I've been on TGR-1101 (Ublituximab or U2 as TG Therapeutics' calls it, I call it the Tiger), TGR-1202 (Obinituzumab or Gazyva),

This trial is going to reopen- Called CAPTIVATE. Ibrutinib plus venetoclax study sponsored by Pharmacyclics - Study Number PCYC-1142 .
FYI, The ibrutinib plus venetoclax study sponsored by Pharmacyclics is the PCYC-1142 trial. This trial has enrolled 150 patients thus far and was closed to new enrollment until this week but I am told enrollment has been reopened. I think it is about 6 locations. I am out of UC San Diego. https

Confused are the dr.s still using chemo with new drugs
Hi everyone, I am near treatment. When I read these posts about people on the new drugs it seems like they are taking them with chemo. My doctor says he does not use chemo anymore. Are they bringing the chemo back with the new drugs. Why not have the clinical trials with only the new drugs and no chemo
