I was told they don't do chemo for CLL anymore. My WBC was 241 when I started on Brukinsa Oct 24 & last check was 19. I only take 3 pills all at once in the morning. 4 pills caused too much brusing & easy bleeding so I only did that 3 months then reduced to 3.

@califirniagal my husband started Brukinsa( his WBC was 231 at the hospital) 1 tablet twice a day and was also prescribed allopurinol once a day. CLL was in his brain also which is very, very rare according to oncologist.
What side effects do you have besides bruising?
