Comment:
Within 24 hours my lymph nodes decreased in size, within 10 days complete normal. White count is still very high but I was told to expect this. I feel much better. I have some loose stools and some headaches but manageable. Much better than I was feeling a month ago.

It reduced the lymph nodes within one week. I have had severe chills followed by high fevers lasting 7-8 hours at least twice a day. I do not know how much longer I can tolerate these symptom before stopping the drug.
