Recently diagnosed with CLL. Aged 50 with wife and 2 young daughters. On watch and wait, feeling like a walking time bomb.
Hi and a very warm welcome to the online community although I'm sorry you've had to find us.
I see that you have joined the CLL group and I'm sure you'll benefit from talking to the people over there about your recent diagnosis.
Clicking on the link I've created will take you back there where you can introduce yourself or post a question after selecting 'start a discussion' and join in with existing conversations by clicking on 'reply'.
When you feel up to it, it would be really useful if could pop something about your journey so far into your profile as it helps others when answering or looking for someone with a similar diagnosis. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Edit Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
