The information is very informative. I would like to connect with individuals or families dealing with CLL. My husband is suffering from a horrible, itchy rash, that bleeds and covers his entire body. Nothing has worked. Has anyone had that experience?

Thank you!

Hi @markgventnor, it’s not unusual for people to experience itching when they have a blood cancer or condition. I went through periods of that myself and I swear, having an itch is worse than pain! It can be relentless.

I found a great discussion for you to join so you can meet others with CLL. This comment with
@susie1340, particularly caught my eye. She has CLL and has terribly itching as well. You can read her comment here:

There are other members in the same discussion and you can start reading all of those here:

Another way to meet more members with CLL is to type CLL into the search bar at the top of this page or, Click on Blood cancer and Disorders to go directly to that group where you’ll see another search window exclusively in the blood cancer group so it searches relevant discussions for you.

Has your husband started any treatments for CLL?
