NICE Approves Acalabrutinib (Calquence) for specified groups of CLL patients in England
Patients for whom chlorambucil would've been an option at that time would have been the less fit patients who could not have tolerated
FCR
or BR.

New guy here, just want to share my story.
A barrage of blood tests were ordered and to summarize the results, I had everything one could want and nothing you wouldn't want, so I was the perfect candidate for
FCR
with great chance for a long remission.

First Time Post: CLL in full relapse mode + vaccines and Calquence next line of defense.
Unfortunately my leukemia is back after nearly 2 years of remission with
FCR
. I’ve undergone the typical CLL tests and was ‘relieved’ to find it had not transformed into anything worse - so I got that going for me.

NICE Recommends Acalabrutinib for treating CLL for certain groups
People with untreated CLL without a 17p deletion or TP53 mutation usually have
FCR
or BR. If
FCR
or BR is unsuitable, chlorambucil plus obinutuzumab is offered instead.

Which vaccine is better for CLL patients, Pfizer or Astra Zeneca ?
After 5 years of slow raising , at 134000 WBC I had
FCR
chemo, only two cycles, as I reacted with high fever to Rituximab and blood count droped down to 8000 immediately, so twice the second day of Cyclofosfamid was cancelled and unfortunately I did suffer from Clostridium Difficile after each treatment

Astra Zeneca - any reactions?
I am so much more sensitive to all kinds of things since
FCR
two and a half years ago. Anyway, small price to pay for not getting covid.

Inevitable, but still a blow and a huge disappointment
Over 10 years diagnosed with CLL and after a 4 year remission following
FCR
, I have just been told that my lymphocyte levels has just risen to just over 5 (Outside the upper scale of normal).

Exercising and walking when your muscles are stiff
Is high intensity exercises or long walks advisable if you have sore stiff muscles? I always thought being active as much as possible was suppose to be helpful for people with Parkinson's, but in my case it seems to make the stiffness worse the following day. Maybe it's because I'm doing some of the

Strange case of CLL remission
He was supposed to do the regular 6 session of
FCR
. He only did the FIRST chemo session, day 1 Rituximab, then half a dose of Fludarabine before a severe tumor lysis syndrome kicked in that almost costed him his life. He stopped the treatment and was on a partial remission for 8 years!
