For Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia: Started treatment at VA in Houston about 6 weeks ago....lymph nodes back to normal in 1st 2-1/2 weeks. 5th week of treatment started feeling flu like symptoms....got worse over next 2 weeks. Visited with Hematologist a few days ago.....dropped from 3 pills daily to one pill daily. I bounced back in one day.....lots of energy and no more body aches/pain. Night and day difference in a very short time span.
