Hi
I am in my 10 week like many being shielded as I have CLL. and at present on watch. I normally work so have instead worked from home. I am the only wage earner in my family so I at times feel I must ensure I am well both physically and emotionally.
I acknowledge the tiredness i fell is part of having CLL but what I am struggling with is the mood swings which I never have had before. Does anyone else experience these?
Also twice now my check up appointments at the hospital have been cancelled. My next appointment will not be until September which will make it a year. I appreciate that my levels are not a concern but I was wondering please whether anyone else has had that happen to them.
Hi,
I am sorry it has happened to you as well . I am fortunate I am well but like you my blood count as changed. I hope the advice the government gives us covers everyone including watch and wait .Also that is easy to understand and we are not forgotten.
Whatever cancer throws your way, we’re right there with you.
We’re here to provide physical, financial and emotional support.
