Hi @mabfp3 Bruising can be fairly common and random with any form of leukemia. If your husband starts seeing more frequent bruising then he might want to call for an earlier blood test.

What was his most recent platelet count?

Hi Lori, My husband just looked up his platelet count on Aug 25th (his first visit to the specialist at MGH Boston) and it was 125. I guess that this is a little low. Can someone with CLL receive platelets from a spouse? If so, I would definitely donate for my husband. Thanks so much for any insight that you can provide. MaryAnn from Boston
