http://clldiary.blogspot.com/2013/01/red-cell-rebound.html
LIVING WITH CHRONIC LYMPHOCYTIC LEUKEMIA, RICHTER'S TRANSFORMATION, DLBCL, AND EVERYTHING ELSE. Thursday, January 03, 2013. I knew I was feeling more energetic recently when, after going up and down the stairs moving a dozen cardboard boxes, I didn't feel especially winded. Contrast this with not all that long ago, when just getting myself up the 14 steps was challenge enough. I'll also ask him about possible maintenance treatments and/or treatments at relapse, including what may be available in clinical...

http://clldiary.blogspot.com/2013/03/bendamustine-and-rituximab-verdict.html
LIVING WITH CHRONIC LYMPHOCYTIC LEUKEMIA, RICHTER'S TRANSFORMATION, DLBCL, AND EVERYTHING ELSE. Sunday, March 17, 2013. Bendamustine and rituximab: the verdict. The results are in. After five cycles of bendamustine (Treanda) and rituximab, which ended in mid-November, I can report that the treatment worked better than I expected. I have to admit that I just about fell out of my chair upon hearing the news. I was hoping, at best, for maybe 20% CLL in the marrow, a significant reduction, to be sure....

LIVING WITH CHRONIC LYMPHOCYTIC LEUKEMIA, RICHTER'S TRANSFORMATION, DLBCL, AND EVERYTHING ELSE. Sunday, June 02, 2013. April nightmare; May resolve. When last I wrote. Things were looking pretty good. I had gotten a better-than-expected result from bendamustine and rituximab. I was planning on seeing expert Dr. Thomas Kipps at UC San Diego on April 25 to discuss maintenance ideas or what to do at relapse; perhaps one of the BTK inhibitor trials would be a possibility. Now, for those who don't know. A dro...

LIVING WITH CHRONIC LYMPHOCYTIC LEUKEMIA, RICHTER'S TRANSFORMATION, DLBCL, AND EVERYTHING ELSE. Thursday, February 13, 2014. I've met with my transplant/CLL doctor, Jose Leis, at the Mayo Clinic in Phoenix. He was pleased with my response to Ibrutinib - dramatic shrinkage of abdominal nodes - and laid out the course I will be following in the coming months. And get those nodes down. Meanwhile, a donor has been found. Somewhere out there is a man in his 40s. With most varieties of CLL, time is not of the ...

The " watch and wait. Mantra in CLL can be a test of wills unlike most other cancer experiences. Shouldn't I do something about it? Watch and wait is hard enough, but getting run over by a steamroller in slow motion seems like a medical version of water boarding. In some of the "acute leukemias" which are very differ...

CLL Diary: I'm finally not feeling like crap
http://clldiary.blogspot.com/2013/07/im-finally-not-feeling-like-crap.html
LIVING WITH CHRONIC LYMPHOCYTIC LEUKEMIA, RICHTER'S TRANSFORMATION, DLBCL, AND EVERYTHING ELSE. Wednesday, July 17, 2013. I'm finally not feeling like crap. Greetings from the cancer ward. During the weeks prior to treatment, as my belly grew, pain grew with it. The burgeoning tumors put stress on my lower back, pushing against nerves there. This required that I sleep sitting up in a chair, and even then it took oxycodone to be pain-free. Laying on my back was an invitation to torture. I could have put u...
