Knee replacement with CLL?
Particularly anyone being treated with
Imbruvica
? I finally healed almost completely with no pain, only some stiffness, to have the pain return? I know
imbruvica
can cause joint pain but wondering if it can effect artificial knees?

I have CLL and am currently on

Rituxan, taken alone
I was on
Imbruvica
for 6 months but had to stop it because of afib and flutter, a common side effect of the drug. I have heart issues, including fast heartbeat and ventricular tachycardia. I am over 80 years old. My oncologist is recommending a Rituxan drip.

Nose bleed
3d day on
Imbruvica
. Have a little nosebleed a while ago. I've been to the gym. Does exertion contribute to bleeding?

Starting Imbruvica today!
About to start my treatment of
Imbruvica
tonight. Was wondering what I could expect. I know everybody is different but I’m wondering what if any side effects you’ve experienced and how you battled (treated) them. Thanks!

New drug soon...Acalabrutinic (Calquence) will have less side effects than Imbruvica.
I have been on
Imbruvica
for 3 years. My flow cytometry reports are down to #1.But i do have mild side effects (respiratory). Dr. J C Byrd has helped to develop 2ND generation BTK inhibitor - Calquence which will be available this year. Let us all hope for newer drugs - they have saved my life !!

My new CLL Treatment
My oncologist is recommending a drip of Rituxan and Bendamustine for my CLL treatment to replace
Imbruvica
since I had heart issues with this drug. Is anyone else getting this treatment? If so, any serious side effects?

Imbruvica
My husband has been on
Imbruvica
for 29 days and had appointment with Oncologist today. His WBC has gone from 28,000 to 90,000 today. His Oncologist was not too concerned about the rapid increase in WBC. He said it was not uncommon to have a rapid rise when starting

Heartburn
Nearing two years on
Imbruvica
( no real problems) but recently I've been experiencing an almost heartburn like pain with my first bite of almost anything. It goes away after a minute or two. Makes no difference if it's a spicy food or bland. Big bit or small.
