Hi Kate. In my 8 yrs with CLL (no treatment thankfully) I have not experienced that, however, I would begin with reaching out to your regular doctor first if the pain continues. And you could also contact your oncologist and ask them what their thought is on it. Oncologists primarily look at all of your blood work, whether your spleen is enlarged, enlarged lymph nodes, etc in determining treatment. Best of luck and hope it feels better real soon:):)
