Hepc treatment was a success and for a year and a half hepc treatment pushed cancer back to normal.Then my wbc started moving slowly. my white count is 15000 right now stress makes it go up i know i have had cll at least 10 years without treatment. I use anti depression meds and addrreal for fatique i now feel great. Watch and wait is stressful and get anti depression meds if needed and get low dosage ADHD meds if your sleeping all the time

15000 is very low. Mine was over 90,000 and doc said some are much higher and doing great. I'm impressed that after 10 yrs on the W/W you're only at 15000. I learned not to take my WBC count too seriously as there are many other factors that determine the severity of the cancer.
