For Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia "Very quickly brought my very high WBC down to within the normal range. RBC is still low, but platelets are good. I had a mild headache for a couple of days, but that went away and hasn't come back. It took maybe 3 or 4 months before I started feeling better overall with more energy. I have been taking Calquence for four years with no problems."
