My son has just been diagnosed with Chronic Myloid Leukaemia. What kind of treatment can we expect and how will it affect his life. He already has mental health issues
Welcome to Cancer Chat GrannieVal although I'm sorry to hear your son has been diagnosed with Chronic Myeloid Leukaemia.
This must be a very difficult time for you both but I hope this information we have about CML, as well as the different types of treatment, will give you some idea of what to expect.
We also have a section on living with CML, but for further information and advice don't hesitate to give cancer nurses a call on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m. They're very easy to talk to and will do all that they can to help.
Hopefully some of our members who have CML will be along soon to share their experiences and advice, but in the meantime, we're thinking of you both and wishing you all the best on this journey.
