I was diagnosed with CLL 6 years ago. I am watching and waiting. I just found this forum last week and started really looking at things today. I was diagnosed when I was 36 I am now 42. Needles to say that I have been trying to live life right. Eating and exercising while watching my WBC steadily increase. I don’t take any supplements but will probably start taking green tea extract as a have seen studies on that. I live in Nashville so we have a wealth of physicians and cll experts.

Just reaching out my hand and saying Hello.

Thanks for this forum.

Hi. I got diagnosed a week ago - bit of a shock! I joined this Group the next day and was overwhelmed with lovely, kind & supportive messages. I too have read up on the benefits of green tea and in fact I am drinking a cup now as I type this! I hope you find this site as useful

as I am. X

This is a great site....I found it my self last December while researching the Imbruvica 420 they were putting me on. I am not new to CLL as I have had it for 30+ years, 27 of which I was on Leukeran off and on 10 different times as that was what they offered back then.

I simply can’t say enough about this community...they are behind each and everyone of us. God smiled on me the day I stumbled onto this community. We learn from each other so a huge welcome to you!!! 🙏💕☘️😍
