I have been taking imbruvica since August 2020. Started out with 480 mg once a day and I now take 240 mg. I had no symptoms what-so-ever and because of a blood test in 2020 by my PCP it stated my white count was elevated. I am one of the lucky CLL patients as I only have manageable side effects, fatigue is the worse one--so I take a nap. Having a wonderful and caring hematologist also is very reassuring.

Welcome to Connect, @cll2020. Thank you for sharing your journey with CLL. It’s positive stories like yours that can be so encouraging to any newbies out there recently diagnosed with CLL. It’s also great to hear that you were able to reduced your dosage of imbruvica! What are the side effects you’ve experienced?
