Certain symptoms I experienced last week indicated that my CLL (leukemia) might have advanced out of stage Zero. Had lab work last week and saw my Oncologist this morning.
Lo & Behold, my CLL counts are still normal (for me). She is going to order a PET scan (whatever that is) that will give her more information that will indicate whether or not I should have a biopsy in a certain lymph node. One of my lymph nodes is sore, but she said that is common in patients with CLL.
Nice to have a specialist that is really knowledgable and that I feel comfortable with.
