Hi Mr. Perezy,
There is a very active support group for people with WM on Facebook. I hope you'll join us.
https://www.facebook.com/groups/wmsupportgroup
If you don't have symptoms, you may not need treatment yet. WM is a very rare disease - it represents less than 1% of cancers seen by the average hematologist/oncologist - even experienced lymphoma doctors may not be up-to-date with WM management. All of the doctors listed in the IWMF directory take a special interest in WM and are involved the latest WM clinical research. WM treatment is very seldom an emergency. Take enough time to figure out the best way forward so you'll have the best possible outcome.
All best,
Meg

The IWMF website contains a directory of hematologists/oncologists who take a special interest in WM and are involved the latest WM clinical research.
