I have asthma and I might be diabetic (haven't gone to a doctor to test it yet but I know I am hypoglycemic). I read that asthma increases the chance for fat embolism and being a diabetic would probably make CLL a pipe dream. I've been quite unhealthy over the years with my weight gain from depression, but I am getting in shape and stretching in case I gather the funds for CLL comes up in the future. But it seems like these health problems would increase the risk for complications and it might not even be worth it. Would it be too dangerous to even consider CLL at this point? This is a dream of mine and I am holding on to all hope because this is my last resort from my height dysphoria, but I don't if it is even possible with my health condition. Anyone have any health problems and went through with CLL?
Will asthma and diabetes greatly increase the risk for complications for CLL?
Asthmatic is okay still can do surgery if it is not severe (COPD), but being a diabetic CLL is not a Good idea at all.
Lmao I saw an obese guy do CLL on instagram. Sad stuff
Hypoglycemic or hyperglycemic?
diabetics have poorer wound healing
as for asthma its more of a anaesthetic issue. dont worry too much about the fat emolism thing its really rare.
the best thing you can do is see a doc for your diabetes
i assume youre in no position to do the operation right now anyways
so focus on getting in shape, lose fat gain muscle, and get your blood sugar in control.
if you do that youll be fine.
if you really want some reassurance message one of the CLL docs: dr assayag will answer all of your questions and i found that rozbruch emails back really quickly too. theyll most likely tell you the exact same thing

Obese can do CLL IF does not have deseas, he is suffering from asthma and diabetes
its all depends on how bad his diabetes is, if he can control it through diet and exercise. then he is more than able to get the procedure done.
even if you had copd the porcedure is still possible, you just need a more extensive preop assement done by the anaesthesiologist.
they will be the ones managing your situation if anythign goes wrong during the opereation.
