  • Hello Richard

    I'm sorry to hear about your diagnosis of CLL. It's understandable, as you're about to start a new treatment, that you might have questions and concerns about how this might work for you. 

    We have information about both Venetoclax and Obinutuzumab on our website, which might be helpful for you. 

    I've had a look through the forum and I can't see that we currently have any other members who have shared their experiences of taking both these treatments. It's worth having a look at the Blood Cancer UK website as well. As a specific blood cancer charity, you may be able to connect with others through their support services who have been on this particular treatment combination. 

    If you'd like to talk things through with one of our nurses for some support and advice, you're welcome to call them on 0808 800 4040, Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm. 

    I hope that things progress smoothly for you Richard. Do keep in touch and let us know how you get on. 

    Best wishes, 
    Jenn
