IgM
I’m wondering how many of you have had elevated IgM, and what your dr did to follow up. Mine was elevated July 2019. My internist ran the test and nothing said. My hep knows it was elevated and during my visit with him Friday, he mentioned it but seems he disregarded it. I’m not sure what I think. Seems

Skin Biopsy
Hi, had a punch skin biopsy done on my arm few months ago and it says “direct immunoflourescence shows granular deposition of IgM at the dermo-epidermal junction, together with fibrinogen in occasional dermal vessels”. Says is non diagnostic but suggests connective tissue disease. Just wondering has

Discontinue IVIG?
When we started IVF treatment this time around, killer cell blood tests showed that my TNF alpha was slightly elevated so Intravenous Immunoglobin (IVIG) was recommended which I had before FET. We are now 9 weeks pregnant & the clinic are saying I need another IVIG but it was so expensive last time we

Open Heart Surgery W/ ITP
On 11/8/2019 I had my 1st Heart Attack. Platelet Count was 3K. Stents would not be a option, because of lifetime Blood thinners. Would need open Heart surgery - 3 way bypass. This is not possible until my platelets get to 100K to perform the operation. Starting in late Dec 2019 I would start NPLATE injections

Blood test
My last three blood test have flagged up a low igM My Gp has asked my permission to contact Haematology to see if further tests are needed. Has this been a problem with anyone else ? I was diagnosed with PMR September 2019 and currently taking 6mg daily prednisolone

Doctor Mike Hansen YouTube of may 6th autopsy findings
I saw his previous video had been posted so I thought I would point out this latest you tube. Sorry I do not know how to link on my iPad. He discusses the relationship of APS and CAPS, that infamous cytokines storm. I wondered if there was not some relationship when they were speaking of the antibody

Canada begins clinical trial of experimental COVID-19 treatment using plasma from recovered individuals
A team of blood transfusion experts from across Canada is planning the world’s largest clinical trial of a potential treatment for COVID-19. The study, which will involve 1,000 patients from across the country, will include at least 40 Canadian hospitals. The experimental treatment involves injecting

How COVID-19 Has Impacted Clinical Trials for Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia

Richter Transformation Survival in CLL Appears Better Among Treatment-Naive
The researchers identified 3 factors associated with increased risk for transformation: advanced Binet stage (P<.001), unmutated
immunoglobulin
heavy chain variable IGHV genes (P <.001), and del(17p) (P <.001).

Why Is the Immunoglobulin Heavy Chain Gene Mutation Status a Prognostic Indicator in CLL? - Dr Keating
A complex but interesting read Acta Haematol August 2018;140:51–54 The
immunoglobulin
heavy chain gene (IgHV) mutation status correlates with the clinical outcome of patients with CLL treated with chemoimmunotherapy.

Mutated and unmutated cll for dummies
IGHV is a fancy acronym for
immunoglobulin
heavy chain region.
Immunoglobulin
is another word for antibody. Think of an antibody as a person doing the YMCA dance on a cll cell, but someone throwing up four arms instead of two.
