vaccines
hi everyone!! I’ve recently ( couple of weeks ago) been diagnosed with CLL waiting for bone marrow biopsy now as it’s not understood why I’m so poorly so no treatment yet until those biopsy results incase there’s more going on. I wanted to ask if anyone else isn’t comfortable or even refuses vaccines

Update re ASCT relapse
Due to my cll returning and having had several new lines of treatment my consultants both my Cll specialist and my transplant specialist have offered me Rchop chemotherapy as one of my few options. This treatment I believe is not used to treat cll but used to treat lymphomas. Apparently it has been

Tapering
Just a quick question about tapering Prednisolone. I have had GCA since Aug 22. Have tapered down to 5mg but had the beginnings of a flare. My rheumatologist told me to go up to 7.5mg. The flare abated. I then got an infection/virus and on the advice of the rheumatology nurses increased to 10mg for a

Aortitis
I was diagnosed with non cranial Giant Cell Arteritis in September last year. So far I haven't managed to find anyone else with this condition because most people have the temporal version with the headaches.Mine is Aortitis which apparently is rare. I'd love to share experiences with someone else

Petechia
I have been treated with Ibrutinib for 16 months and have responded to treatment really well. My white blood count was 148.7 when I started treatment now I am 14.7. I have Petechia on arms and legs. My platelets are 278. Just wondering what could be causing this. This is my first time to post and

CLL/SLL and ischemic bowel death
My brother had untreated SLL. He died March 2022, after a week of omicron Covid infection that seemed to pass mid January of that year. We have heard rumors that many with CLL/SLL die of blood clot/ischemia, but I have been unable to confirm. Are there data to confirm this? I myself have CLL, which

Treatment for life?
Hello. First time posting here. Diagnosed with CLL in July by flow test and Fish test. Although still technically in lymphocytosis. My chart says diagnosis: CLL. During the discussion in July my Dr told me of things they will be keeping an eye on. Then he said he won't discuss particular treatment plans

tasquinimod in myelofibrosis (MF)
»The data showed that treatment with this drug results in normal blood counts, reduction of fibrosis in the bone marrow and normalization of spleen size in this mouse model. That suggests that tasquinimod can act as a disease modifying agent in MF » « The now planned study will investigate tasquinimod

Pain in the spleen/splenomegaly
Hello, maybe someone has an idea. After 5 years w&w my spleen has now enlarged (splenomegaly). I've also been having pain on my left side for a few days now. Are there any natural or herbal ways I can support my spleen? Because I don't want to have a spleen removed. I don't take any other medicine,

Mutation Levels
I have seen other discussions re bad mutations , on my regular letter to my doctor from my haematologist it states : Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia associated with high risk variants including loss of the LEU and ATM genes. As per my normal blood results, do these have a high and low level and if so

Continued Journey
Getting my forth chemo treatment today. This has been much easier than the O CHOP. It has been smooth sailing especially with the surgically implanted port.( I forgot to mention). I am starting to notice some fatigue and energy slow down which is quite natural. One more chemo treatment tomorrow then

Borderline TSH during cancer treatment
Hi folks! Haven't been on here for some time but in the interim I have been treated for Chronic Myeloid Leukaemia. Had chemo in September last year which was successful (minus a few hiccups like fungal pneumonia that put me in ICU!) and currently on home oral chemo, antifungals and antibiotics daily

continuing the journey
I just had my 3rd round of Chemotherapy ( O CHOP). Doing pretty well, will see 2nd week is usually the hardest. My oncologist was very pleased with how I have responded (ei. Platelets 357 from 1st chemo 10).I also had a port put in my chest last week for easier access for infusion iOS and blood work.
