CLL low white cell count

I am currently having chemo treatment for CLL this is the second time in 7years.My immunity levels are very low and the same thing happened last time

Last time I had to give myself an injection at the end of each cycle but they haven't done it as yet this time.Due to have chemo next week but if immunity levels don't increase will postpone it.Fingers crossed it goes up.Anyone have any suggestions as to how to build immunity up ❤️

Hi @Rainbow1 and welcome,

 

I've moved this thread over to the main forums so it's a bit more visible Heart

 

Everyone else, do you have any tips to share with Rainbow1 on boosting and building her immunity levels up? Smiley Happy

My chemo sessions all required blood transfusions 2-3 days later for each of the 5. Seems that was the solution they came up with in my case anyway . They would have either had to stop or delay if they did not do this so the chose to transfuse and contine.

about to enter round 2. I wish you all the luck in the world
