CLL Diagnosis at 80 Stage 0 Discovered Incidentally
I have very brief lasting chills — so I just put something warmer on for a few minutes and they go away. This happens most days and several times a day. Not scary to me — anyone else have this happen? Just curious !
Dr. Diagnosed me in 2020, but said it appears my CLL began in 2019. I am now 82 and still at stage 0. I also have morning nausea which goes away after eating.

Welcome @alliefair. Thank goodness the CLL was discovered incidentally. I moved your message to this existing discussion:
– CLL leukemia: Just diagnosed, what can be done? https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/cll-leukemia/

That way you can easily connect with fellow CLL-ers like @kegraves @pieter1961 @carl50 @mabfp3 @sandiegostu @annieg87 @teddytwo @shirlpat, who can share their experiences and if they get chills periodically throughout the day or nausea in the morning.

Alliefair, are you also under active surveillance and not taking any treatment specifically for CLL?

Hi Alliefair, I was diagnosed with CLL in March and had a lymph node removed. I’m not receiving treatment currently but am in the Wait and Watch period with review every 90 days. Like you, I have periodic chills and morning nausea. I’m glad you posted because I haven’t known anyone with those same symptoms. God bless you in your CLL journey.
