More on Cytokine Release Syndrome toxicities associated with CAR-T-cell therapy.
[i]May 2019, not specific to CLL but adds to our understanding of CAR-T treatment. Extracted from a paper comparing neurological CRS grading assessments.[/i] CRS is caused by the release of cytokines during in vivo CART cell expansion.

CRP Levels
My CRP levels are monitored on a monthly basis and last week’s results triggered a call from my surgery saying an alert had been flagged as ‘they continue to be elevated’ and my GP needed a conversation with me. She is ringing this afternoon. Has anyone ever had this happen? Do you have your CRP levels

Blood tests

Confused & Frustrated after seeing GP about recent blood tests, would appreciate your thoughts please
Hi, I had a follow-up appointment with my new GP this morning. But due to an error I was booked in with another GP, and no appointments available for the new GP.
