Hi i'm Julie and am 50 years old. I was diagnosed with CLL 10 weeks ago it came as a shock as I went to the doctors after finding a lump in my breast. I had never heard of CLL, so am still trying to figure this disease out. I had never heard of watch and wait before either and this is what I am on. Atvthe moment I' m scared, worriedand every thing in between. I need as much support and help as I can get xXx

  • Hi Julie and welcome to the forum.

    I'm sorry to read that you've been diagnosed with CLL. Coming to terms with a cancer diagnosis and the vast array of emotions that come with it can be tough, but you are not alone. Many of our members have been through this and hopefully some of them will pop by soon to offer their support and share their experiences with you.

    I know you're still trying to get your head around your diagnosis so I thought I would share some information we have about CLL on our website with you in case you wanted to find out more. Our cancer nurses are just a phone call away if you have any questions as well. If you'd like to speak to them their lines are open Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m on 0808 800 4040.

    Kind regards,
