Hello & Happy Friday.
I just got off the call with my doctor and will start treatment soon for CLL -My final diagnosis. The recommendation was a daily pill of Venetovlax for a year and 6 infusions of Gazyva done monthly. I’ll have to complete regular labs to keep an eye on liver & kidney function, but this was good news. I feel I have answers and a plan. Now we wait to schedule and learn more from my “Teach” class, which starts the process.
Staying hopeful and ready to heal.

@sherda, it is an odd sense of relief for finally have a diagnosis, isn't it? I'm tagging fellow CLL-ers like @sonia85 @kegraves @hababeck @4romeosierra @suez3 @deananbeck @tinagibson @alanahawaii @carl50 to support you in this unknown journey.

I, for one, will be interested in hearing more about what you learn in the "teach" class.
