Welcome @em1959. The information I posted yesterday for @hikerny (Cliff), who was recently diagnosed with CLL, is also relevant for you. SLL and CLL are virtually identical except name depends on where the cancer cells are concentrated.

Read through the comment and follow the links. I think you’ll find some helpful information to learn more about CLL.
It’s great that your levels have remained stable. Many people go years without treatment and some lucky ducks never require it. Do you have any specific questions about your diagnosis?
