This is what I have found online: Remissions may last as much as 3-5 years after your first retreatment. Because future retreatments usually don't work as well as the first one, your next remissions may be shorter. Please keep in mind that they are working on a cure and different people progress differently. ❤️🙏🏻

It’s different for each one of us. Some people have very few to no symptoms while others of us have many uncomfortable and sometimes painful symptoms. They say there’s no cure for CLL. I have a cousin who after 5 years of CLL with symptoms had 3 courses of chemo and has been in remission 20 years. I always say but his brother is a priest so maybe he had more help from above. They say some foods put people into remission. I’m researching that right now . GodBless , Joanel

Practically no, not yet, though if my memory serves a couple of people treated with CAR-T cells have been.
