FISH Results

[DylanPxxx]

FISH Results: I have stage 4 non Hodgkin lymphoma. Specifically, I have CLL/SLL. I got the FISH results back and they show 16% positive for deletion ATM. The report goes on to say “Deletion of ATM is associated with marked lymphadenopathy and rapid disease progression in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL/SLL).”

Can anyone tell me what this means?

I've been away for a while so only saw your post this morning. I can't answer your question but strongly recommend that you join the forum for CLL and repost it there as they have a lot more members and are a mine of useful information:
