I think both.
Almost twelve year battle so far. I will be starting a study treatment anytime now. Hopefully the treatments will put me in remission once again. God has got this for me.
yes it feel's like you just can't stay awake. I feel better with a little nap. Before C.L.L. I never could take a nap during the day. a year in W. & W. at 69 years old. wishing you blessings.
Based on my limited experience, I think fatigue is normal with CLL.
I was diagnosed in 2015 and did wait and watch for 6 months but counts kept going up. So I started immunotherapy with Rituxan. Every week for 8 weeks. I was tired but ran my own small business, thankfully with some help. After 4 months I did another Roy d of Rituxan for 6 weeks. That gave me 6 months of relief and remission. It was short lived and then I started 6 months of Rituxan/ Bendamustine and Neulasta once a month for 6 months. Got 2.5 years of remission!
Based on my B cell testing I started Imbruvica once a day. Am thankful it’s covered by insurance and I’ve felt so good while taking it. Got most of my energy back too and I’m 74 almost 75
