CLL or Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia can be a stressful diagnosis to hear from your primary physician. Your first consultation with a Hematologist or Medical Oncologist will be crucial to your understanding of this disorder and can often diminish your stress as you learn the nature of this disorder as a chronic illness. Often patients present early in the course and may not need any treatment perhaps for a long period of time. If treatment is needed, the good news is that we have many new and excellent treatments available. I am hoping this video will be helpful to you as you are awaiting your first consultation to learn more about the illness and what if any treatment is appropriate for you based on the unique aspects of your diagnosis.
