Hi @ppolockaz, in Dec'23 it was discovered that I had a high WBC (50), which started me on a 5 month journey of tests. I had no pronounced symptoms that I had noticed so it came as a total surprise. The short story is that I ended up being dx'd with CLL (see my other posts for more if you are interested).
For me, treatment amounted to taking a pill twice a day (Zanubrutinib/Brukinsa) and going for periodic visits to Mayo. I didn't get or need any infusions. The transition to this way of life (taking those pills, being more wary of situations that could lead me to getting sick) was mostly not a big event. I feel mostly the same, and do all of the things I did before.
If / when you get to the point of needing any meds, at least in my experience, it didn't turn out to be nearly as bad as a had first imagined it might be.
