Question: Are nosebleeds common in CML patients, and what about symptoms like right shoulder pain and nausea?

Yes, nosebleeds can be common in CML patients. This happens because CML can cause thrombocytopenia (low platelet counts) which can lead to easy bleeding, including frequent and severe nosebleeds. The condition can also cause thrombocytosis (high platelet counts), but these platelets don't function normally, which can still result in bleeding problems. For the nausea you're experiencing, try eating small meals throughout the day and don't let your stomach get empty, as this can make nausea worse. The shoulder pain and other symptoms you're experiencing should be discussed with your healthcare provider, as they may need to adjust your treatment or check your blood cell levels.
