A shocking diagnosis

I was totally shocked when my primary called to say my WBC was high and I needed to see a hematologist. After further testing and a bone marrow biopsy they came up with the diagnosis of WM. When my blood viscosity got to 4.0 I was put on Imbruvica. So far it is working well. I have some fatigue and bone pain that is worse when I get up agyer sitting or laying down. All things considered I feel lucky that it is not worse. I pray my condition continues to improve.
