Hi All,
it has been VERY hard to find others dealing with blood cancer related illness. Is anyone going through it? or had been through it please?

Hi julianne, I've was diagnosed last week with CLL when I had high white blood cell count for several months. It seems a bit unreal at the moment as I can't tbh recognise any of the symptoms. I've been told it's early stages. Am to have ct scan shortly having had already ultrasound and chest xray. Then it's a check every 3 months with haematologist consultant. By phone appt..not actually been seen at the hospital. Buit scary but there's lots of helpful stuff on line.
Have you had it quite a while? Hope you're doing OK
Best wishes

Hi Jan, thanks for replying, Sorry to hear about your diagnosis....it's not the best news to start a new yr with but we just have to think positive/surround ourselves with good people and take it day by day.
I did come across a virtual group online which i will attend, so feel free to join if you are looking for support (i find there is alot of information online, but its hard to find actual people/groups where you get to speak/talk to someone going through blood cancer)
feel free to join if you will be up to it. Its on this wednesday 7th of feb at 7.30pm on zoom.
Thanks julienne. I'm not sure if I can do zoom..I'll give it a try :)
