Hi, I'm in-between treatments now and need to hold on 10 more days till my doctor's back. I had IVIG which had a very short term effect it seems and I'm having a couple of new bruises (smallish really) and a bit of blood when I'm brushing my teeth. In addition, I have allergic eczematic rush so a couple

Late October - Clinical trial update - B + R and Idelalisib - CAL 101
Hey, Well three days in the Day Care centre last week - first for IVIG and then the fourth round of two day chemo infusions. Both went reasonably well, with the minor frustrations of "red tape & paperwork". Although I was able to drive home after all three visits, I have felt lathargic over the weekend

Dr Sharman provides an update on an NIH CAR-T trial for relapsed/refractory DBLC
Many of us will remember the excitement a couple of years back when Dr Carl June of the University of Pennsylvania announced Chimeric Antigen Receptor engineered T Lymphocytes (CAR-T) were successfully used to cure at least one CLL patient. As Dr Sharman covers in his latest blog, CAR-T research is

To those of you on NPlate, how often is a normal injection, how much and what is the goal set by your doctor as far as count?
My husband was diagnosed in May. Nothing but NPlate raises hiis count. Rituxan, IVIG, platelet transfusions and prednisone were of no real help. I keep reading everyones comments about their count being 20,000 to 50,000 but his Dr keeps giving injections and wants him about 300,000 because about every

Immunoglobulin Replacement.
Hi Everybody, Now back home. Three bottles of antibodies ( PS Made in Spain) administered. Good nurse got it in one. 4 hours + to do 3 bottles. No complaints apart from this dam infection. Look on the brightside greame in 12 months infections may be cut down. I am looking forward to that day. Hope

Blood draws, what are your tips for a relatively painless experience?
I've just had my regular blood tests done, which prompted this post. (My routine is to go to a pathology collection centre for the blood draw, then two days later pick up my results from my GP after he has checked them. I schedule the test prior to my haematology appointment so I'm prepared with questions

CLL - a Cancer of the Immune System
Make sure you get your immunity levels checked (simple blood test to check neutrophil and
immunoglobulin
levels) if you suspect you are getting infections more frequently and/or infections are taking you longer to overcome.

Neutropenic sepsis
I recently posted an article referring you to a short video on this subject. Last week my husband had sepsis again. We were away on holiday, he suddenly became very tired, went to sleep for 3 hours (most unusual during the day) I woke him up, his eyes were rolling up into his eyelids, his speech slurred
