Question 2

constant severe abdominal pain, left side. worse with movement. any ideas?

Accepted Answer

Sounds urgent: I'm not sure how long this has been going on, but if it's been less than a a week, you should go to an emergency room asap. Even at age 33, diverticulitis is a possibility, as is a tubo-ovarian abscess. If it has present for more than a week, you may be able to sort it out as an outpatient, but don't wait. If primary care not available, go to the ER. Hope this helps!

Question 5

diagnosed recently cll stage 0 but just started having abdominal pain left side, feeling bloated. wbc 13, 000. will i need chemo if nodes in abdomen?

Accepted Answer

Here's an idea: Today, it's customary to subtype cll by its genetic markers. It's actually about a dozen different diseases, some aggressive, some not. I'll bet that your hematologist has already done this, and your tumor mutation / translocation profile will be more helpful as a guide to treatment. Whether your spleen is big or not is much less of a factor than other parameters.
