Started Eltroxin February this year. Previously well managed situation. Now life is more of

Zanubrutinib or O&V
The CLL specialist that we are seeing is giving my husband the choice between O&V and Zanubrutinib. We are trying to make the best decision, but struggling. They also said he can do one and switch to the other or vice a versa, but my husband works full-time and we’re a bit concerned about What seems

HCT Jumped 3%.
I haven't had to have a phlebotomy for months and my HCT was hanging in at 45 or below. I switch from HU to Pegasus 2 1/2 months ago and all of a sudden my HCT jumped up 3%. It must be because of the very low dose I started with which was 45mcgs. I went up to 60mcgs after 6 weeks and now he wants me

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

Supportive wife
Hi there! My husband was diagnosed with CLL in 2015. He had zero issues, I was just concerned about esophageal issues (burping) and requested a 50-year full physical so we could get a scope. Within two weeks my husband had diagnosis for esophageal cancer at GE junction (14% survival rate) and CLL.

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

jakafi and Pegasys combination for Myelofibrosis
Does anyone have both Jakafi and Pegasys? My Mpn has hinted that this might be a good combination. I think there have been trials but I can’t find them now!

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

Hi all, just to give you an update on my journey towards my *Allogenic Stem cell Transplant.

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

Have I progressed to PV?
Hello everyone, I have had ET, Jak2+ for 5-1/2 years and my platelets have been rising the past 1-1/2 years above normal range. Recently, I had routine blood work ordered by my GP and the results showed an almost 200 thousand increase in platelets since May from 629 to 805. I messaged my MPN specialist

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
