Shortness of breath can indeed be associated with CLL, as it may result from anemia, enlarged lymph nodes affecting breathing, or other factors related to the condition. It's always best to discuss any concerning symptoms with a healthcare provider who can properly evaluate what might be causing this symptom and recommend appropriate next steps.

I have never felt shortness of breath with my CLL. Not sure if that is a symptom or not..

I have Macrocytic Anemia and shortness of breath is becoming more and more obvious. I'm hoping that after a bit on Brukinsa, some of that will improve.
