MBL Diagnosis

I have just been diagnosed with monoclonal b cell lymphocytosis with phenotype characteristics of leukemia. I have been having high levels of lymphocytes currently sitting at 6.7. I am confused whether this is cancer or not, I know MBL is a pre cancerous condition but I have read that is with lymphocytes of under 5, so do I in fact have CLL. Has anyone else had this condition that could offer some guidance.

  • Hello Pickle23

    I'm afraid that U don't know the answer to your question. You're welcome to call our team of nurses and chat things through with them. I'm sure they will be happy to offer any advice and information they can. they're available on Monday to Friday 9 am to 5 pm on 0808 800 4040. 

    I'm nor aware of any other members on the forum who have the same diagnosis as you so I also wanted to give you the link to Blood Cancer UK. You may be able to connect with others who have this condition via their online support forums or you may want to give their support line a call. 

    I hope that you find some clarity soon.
