Imbruvica Use

I have been on Imbruvica for about 1 month now for CLL. When my WBC count hit 68 in mid March 2020, the doctor put me on it. 2 weeks after starting the drug my WBC count was 95.

Has Anyone Had Any Bone Issues With CML, ALL, AML, CLL?

I ask because I had an MRI recently for my shoulder. I've got some tears in my rotator cuff muscles which was the basic reason for the MRI but they noted some lesions in the humerus.
