I was diagnosed with CLL in October 2017 with WBC of 32,000 and lower platelet counts. My WBC/platelet counts have been going up and down with every monthly check. My spleen is enlarged and am looking at possible treatment in the near future. Since diagnosis, I have made changes in diet, along with taking turmeric/green tea supplement Protandim daily, drinking green tea daily and eating blueberries daily. I do not know of effects of these natural health changes as of yet. Any recommendations on treatments? Natural health success stories?

Hello @rmoen,

I would like to add my welcome to @dougmann's. Thank you for sharing your diagnosis with CLL with the other Connect members of the Blood Cancers & Disorders group. I actually merged your discussion with an existing called CLL - Newly Diagnosed. I did this because I wanted to introduce you to the other members who are talking about many of the same experiences as you are currently going through. If you are responding by email, I reccomend you click on VIEW & REPLY and you will be brought to the full discussion.

Once here, you may find it worth your time to read through the other messages and get to know some of the other members who will understand what you are going through. @rmoen, if you don't mind me asking, you were asking about treatments other members have gone through, has your current provider recommended any specific treatments? How are you feeling?

hi,rmoen!It is now June 2024, how are you doing?
