Update after 3rd FCR!
After 3 rounds of
FCR
, my doctor said we can go ahead with plan to get BMB in September and hopefully stop treatment! Had no problems during chemo. Port was great to have. Nodes gone, blood work continues to go in right direction.

Ibrutinib vs FCR: does order of therapy matter?
The rest are given
FCR
, then, anyone who relapses after being given
FCR
may be given ibrutinib. Do we know for sure that such a strategy is worse then moving everyone to ibrutinib first line? It may well be that ibrutinib can rescue effectively patients who relapse on other treatments.

Clonal Evolution, mutations and resistance to CLL treatment
to see this as a strike against
FCR
as a first line option.

Info needed
I know when you have
fcr
your immune system is destroyed and infections are a great concern, but if you don’t have
fcr
and go onto the ibrutinib trials is your immune system affected in same way and if so is it affected for all the time your taking the tablets?

Immune system during fcr
My partner was diagnosed 5 years ago and just begun first round of
fcr
. He has no real side effects up to now but I wonder are there certain times during trwatment when the immune system is most compromised. We are avoiding busy places but dont want to live in a 'bubble' either.

Imbrevica rash
The Gazyva has made all my numbers normal except my plateles; they never recovered from
FCR
that I had in 2010 -11. I'm thinking of talking to my doctor about Ventalexa with Rituxan. I need to stop this rash because; it has interfered with my quality of life.

Sinemet IR or Sinemet CR??
For those of you on sinemet, do you prefer sinemet immediate release or sinemet controlled release? My neuro is taking me off mirapex( due to bad side effects) and wants me to try sinemet. I don’t know which one I should try.

I needed my pain meds
I went head first into
FCR
. I didn't know when it it hit me. I was sick! I knew I was a younger person with CLL but now it wad cruel and scary. When I finished chemo I waited to get back to normal but I was told I had a "new normal". Almost 10 years later I agree. I never got back to old normal.

Third FCR dose
After the third dose of the treatment, I think my body got over the treatment more quickly. I felt very nauseous for 5 days, but then much better and more like myself. Has anyone else felt the same? Maybe my body is better at dealing with the chemo now? Still neutrophenic after the treatment though

Update on Round 2 FCR
Hi everyone! As promised I would let you know how it's going. Round 2 was uneventful as well ! It was such a relief to not have any side effects. I noticed I was a little tired one extra day after chemo was done. First round I was tired and not so hungry for 2 days. This time it was 3 days. Don't

Lymphocyte count post FCR
Three years ago my husband had
FCR
which was very effective and he became MRD- (ie complete remission). Everything has been going very well and he is feeling much healthier than he had done for years before
FCR
(he had 2 years in W&W but had clearly had CLL for years before diagnosis).
