Well let me add my 2 cents,
I was told in 2020 I had leukemia lcc a little over a year ago was told no signs of it i took CALQUENCE twice a day during that time..lots of people praying for me as well as me.....i know that Jesus healed me, i pray for everyone that fights cancer. My energy is slowly coming back.
I was Diagnosed on September 9th 2011 I was in my 50's I do not think any stages I just celebrated 15 years of being a survivor..I focus on enjoying my life.. and I really don't want to know my stages.... because I don't believe that man even if it is a Doctor that can tell you how many years you have left..I live a healthy life style and I want to live in the moment not in the past.. Enjoy life and Don't worry about statges or how long you Got..Only God knows our time.. Have a wonderful day everyone ❤️
I was diagnosed with CLL at 51 and and now I’m 77. I’m 5’-11” and I weigh 180, I lift weights usually twice a week ( bench press 50lbs. 40 times, two or three sets plus some other weight lifting). I’ve only had 4 iron infusions since being diagnosed, all in the past 3 years. It looks like that’s going to be a regular thing for me as my body is not absorbing iron from food or supplements. Eventually, I’ll have to get some more aggressive treatment but for now I’m just keeping positive thoughts and pushing forward!
Ajaya, let me add my two-cents about this topic. After having CLL for 15 years I was finally diagnosed with stage 4. I am currently finishing up with an aggressive chemotherapy plan. Things for me are looking promising because my spleen has greatly reduced and my WBC is 3,000. Not too bad for an 81-year-old man. 😁
Folks, keep a positive attitude, never give up !!🙏
Thank you that gives me hope don't know what stage am in but it's been since 2018 this gives me hope for my future am almost 65
