First night on Buprenorphine
So today I took 0.2 mg of Buprenorphine, thinking it was better to start low. The effect was incredible. My legs didn't move at all. In fact, the effect was so effective that I even got scared. My body was so relaxed. I got a little anxious that I may not wake up if I felt sleep. I layed there amazed

An update of the long-term follow-up results from the original 300-patient FCR (fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, and rituximab) study initiated at MD Anderson in 1999,
Sustained remissions in CLL after frontline FCR treatment with very-long-term follow-up,
reports ~47% of patients with mutated IGHV

Elevated Gamma-GT and gallbladder stone
I posted a while back about how my GGT value was increasing over time and with every repeat blood test it was elevated further. All other enzyme values in normal range, I had an ultrasound this week and it showed one gallbladder stone. I have no symptoms of gallbladder issues - no abdominal pain etc
