Spleen…
Yes I looked like I ate a baseball plate.
Your spleen holds the white cells fighting invaders.
Sending you prayers my friend.
To me it became a sign I was winning.
At least I was fighting
Here’s my Adams’s family

Be proud my fighter

Hello RobertGallegos. I took Calquence for 18 months. My WBC and platelets were normal for the last 6 months. I was told the body could become resistant to the medication and my hematologist suggested we suspend the treatment. That was the end of June. Virtual appointment with him in July to check if my fatigue was better. It was some. The brain fog too longer to go away. Labs in August when I was at UNC for a thyroid ultrasound. WBC and platelets still normal. Last visit was in October for hematologist, labs and IVIG. WBC and platelets still normal but RBC and hematocrit were increased. I go tomorrow for next IVIG and of course labs first. So we will see. Next visit with hematologist is in January. Hope this reinforces what you asked. Take care.

Hi PhillipWood, your pic looks pretty good to me. At least you still have the mustache. We are all on the leukemia journey together. Some of us are just ahead of others as we travel along. Stay positive, keep smiling and keep praying. God will be with you and give you strength. I will add you to my prayer list.
Thank you for your encouraging words Phillip. The not knowing what is ahead is bugging me, but then I remember the "Serenity Prayer" and I know I everything will be alright... GOD is in charge.
You keep fighting... and winning ! 👍🙏

I hope your holidays are not affected by your infusion? I was just told my spleen was not normal size but I have been taking medication also 2 years so this could help me? Please let me know how you are doing after your infusion?
