Q: What is the connection between T cell leukemia and RH. I have both and wonder if the leukemia came first and RH later. I have had RH for 38 years but always felt bad all my life.
Wow! That is a complicated question. One I cannot answer. We are not doctors on this site. We are RA patients and we share what we know and what we have experienced. I thought I read that T cell leukemia is caused by a virus. Is that not true? I am sorry you are going through all of this. Please address your concerns with your doctors, and let us know how you are doing. I hope you are being treated for the leukemia and that the treatments are successful (((Hugs)))
