I was taking Brukinsa to control my CLL. I developed a cough without a fever and then my blood pressure increased even though I had been taking medication to control this issue. After 6 months of no answers or help from my medical people I stoped taking my Brukinsa. A month later my cough and blood pressure was normal. I also learned by myself that we may swallow 100 ml of fluid from our lungs per day. I think I have more than this 100 ml per day? Our lungs are a big organ in our body which can be attacked by our illness. I read an article that it has been discovered that white blood cells do collect in the sinus because this is an entry for bacteria and other things that can harm the body? I think the lungs are another entry point where WBC may concentrate to combat illness? I read an article from University of California Medical School that lung tissue studied had stem cell tissue for red blood cells? This makes sense since blood cells do carry oxygen but we were only told that blood cells come from our bone morrow tissue? I hope you get better help than I have been given in the past. I think your research will provide answers to your questions. I think your future will be healthy and happy. Celebrating Long Life (CLL)
