Good morning. I was diagnosed in June 22 with blood work showing high WBC and Lymphocytes: i.e.; CLL. Watch and Wait for 18 months and started oral chemotherapy Jan 24. So far Calquence has returned WBC and platelets to normal. Bone marrow biopsy has not been mentioned to me. I think biopsy is done depending on several different red flags found in the blood work or when the current treatment plan is no longer working.

I was diagnosed through a blood test they did some fancy one that was sent off. I'm early stage and dropped 22 pounds and changed my diet and my numbers dropped I'm going to stay positive and keep moving or like my buddy says KEEP PUNCHING!!

I was diagnosed with CLL with a CBC and Flow Cytometry test.
I have early stage CLL with no symptoms and hope it remains this way for a long time.
I have not had a Bone Marrow biopsy

I was admitted to the hospital with pulmonary embolism and DVT. My blood work showed some irregularities and my lymph nodes were swollen. After more blood testing and a lymph node biopsy , I was diagnosed with CLL.
