As a birthday gift, my mother would like botox shots to eliminate some
lines in her upper lip. My mother was also diagnosed with Chronic
Lmyphositic (spl?) Leukemia in 1997. She is currently in remission.
Would Botox be safe?

I am not finding any referances to the two combined. Your best bet is
call a doctor and inquire if this will be of some affect to the
leukemia.

When it comes to C.L.L. [ Chronic Lymphocytic leukemia] It is
extremely important that you do nothing to put any extra strain on the
patients immune system. This disease is unusual in that the white
blood cells go to very great numbers while the red cells stay normal.
It affects the whole blood system and is not localised, such as breast
cancer. It places a tremendous strain on the spleen and affects all
the internal organs, simply because blood flows there. Botox is a form
of poison that the body would attempt to fight. Normal W.B.C. [ white
blood count] is 4 to 11 thousand. Those with C.L.L. can go to 95,000
or higher. Stick with the haematologists [blood doctors]treatment and
stay away from herbs and spices. Although not being a doctor, I am
well versed in this particular nasty as I've had it since '99, and am
still under treatment. And as a regular GA commenter on matters
religious, I look forward to  the day when no resident will say " I am
sick" Isaiah 33;24.
