APML (Acute Promyelocytic Leukaemia) - was diagnosed last year. If anyone wants to chat, let me know. I'm here for you!

If any one out there wants to chat about APML I’m here for you! Was diagnosed last year and still having treatment. It’s a bit of a rare one and there isn’t many of us about..

  • Hello Emsy179

    I'm sorry to hear that you were diagnosed with APML last year. I hope that treatment hasn't been too difficult and that you've been well supported by the health professionals involved in your care as well as family & friends. 

    As you've said, APML is a rare type of acute myeloid leukaemia and so it can be difficult to connect with others who are living with the same diagnosis. I've looked through the forum and I can't see that we have any other members currently active who have AMPL. Hopefully someone will see your post and reply, but in the meantime, you could also try specific blood cancer charities such as Blood Cancer UK and Leukaemia Care

    If it would ever help to chat with one of our team of nurses, you're most welcome to give them a call. They're available Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm on 0808 800 4040 and I know they will be happy to listen and offer any advice, information and support they can. 

    I hope that things progress well for you Emsy179. Keep in touch and let us know how you are.

    Best wishes,
