I was diagnosed with CLL about 2 years ago, upgraded from MBL. So far I’m asymptomatic. What can I expect in the future?

Hi @haroldgoerzen. Not sure how you sneaked in past my radar, but I want to belatedly welcome you to Connect! ☺️
Reading through your reply to @suzjlance I see you intially were diagnosed with MBL. Monoclonal B-Cell Lymphocytosis. That is a condition which can lead to CLL over time.
A little more on MBL from Healthline.com

Now that there has been a progression CLL, you’d like to learn a little more about your condition. Hopefully you’ve been able to read through all of the conversations from the first posting in this discussion to see that CLL remains one of the more treatable forms of leukemia. There are links imbedded in the conversations informational articles and websites on CLL. Many people may go years without requiring any treatment.
What has your doctor talked to you about in regards to the staging of your disease? Was there any mention of possible treatments down the road?
