1. as you are diagnosed with CLL, which means that blood count [anemia] as well as
platelet count [thrombocytopenia] would be low [check with the values as low values could be the cause of pink lumps [hemorrhage due to easy bruising], and since your
oncologist has suggested to see doctor of other specialty, probably they are not related to/with lymph nodes.
2. People with chronic
lymphocytic leukemia [CLL] due to change in immune system are more likely to develop other cancers. [reason to check with
dermatologist for any skin cancer [skin toxicity with
chemotherapy drugs] or with
primary care doctor to rule out any other pathology including fungal,viral, and bacterial infections].
PS
i. since in CLL although lymphocytes are plenty but leukemic cells may not function well to fight infection and may interfere with the production of red blood cells (which carry oxygen) and platelets (which control bleeding), thus person is susceptible to variety of infection(s) [panctopenia]
ii. people with CLL are more prone to
chickenpox infection and shingles,let your primary care doctor or specialist know as soon as possible.
iii. Campath (Alemtuzumab): with the use of the drug there is increased incidence of pancytopenia, check with laboratory values and ask to administer prophylaxis against Pneumocystis jirovecipneumonia (PCP) and herpes virus infections.
iv. apart from antibiotics and steroids you may need immune globulins to treat or prevent infection.
v. abnormal cells can accumulate in the skin, causing lumps (chloromas) [can ask with your oncologist]
vi. since not itching taking benadryl probably won't affect the outcome.
