Hi Sonia, welcome. I moved your question about blood values with CLL to this existing discussion
- CLL leukemia: Just diagnosed, what can be done? https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/cll-leukemia/

I did this so you can read previous posts and easily connect with fellow CLL-ers like @kegraves @pieter1961 @carl50 @mabfp3 @sandiegostu @teddytwo @pike70 @eam32 @sofaramnotdead @minnesotajim @valeriewiegand and others.

According to the American Cancer Society's information https://www.cancer.org/cancer/chronic-lymphocytic-leukemia/detection-diagnosis-staging/how-diagnosed.html
"People with CLL have too many lymphocytes. (This may be called lymphocytosis.) Having more than 10,000 lymphocytes/mm³ (per cubic millimeter) of blood strongly suggests CLL, but other tests are needed to know for sure."

Naturally, the range of white blood cells and percentage of lymphocytes is different for everyone and monitored closed the decide on treatment or if your situation is active surveillance (also known as watch an wait).

Sonia, will you have treatments or are you currently on active surveillance? What are next steps for you?

Hi @sonia85, it looks like you must have received results of some bloodwork and there were numbers flagged high or low? Were you having any symptoms which prompted the labs or was this with a routine physical?

CLL is a slowly developing leukemia and can take years before treatment is even needed. It’s often managed quite well.

Have you spoken with a hematologist yet?
