I have posted before. Mine showed up on labs as platelets were low. Platelets started dropping, then spleen started to enlarge. Blood work end 2021 was a red flag. Platelets really low, spleen quite enlarged, IGG very low and WBC and Hemoglobin out of wack. In January 2022, bone marrow biopsy/aspiration, CT Scan and other urine tests etc showed I have Low grade B cell Splenic Marginal zone Lymphoma/Leukemia - Lymphoproliferative Disorder. I am on a watch and wait and not receiving treatment until symptoms start. I have been told that feeling crummy, night sweats and fevers are the first signs. So far so good. It is a huge worry though.

Hello Elaine,

So far, it sounds like I may be in a similar condition to what you describe above - I was just diagnosed. No symptoms (other than some lethargy). I'm curious if you have been advised about any special diet, helpful supplements, or told about things to avoid eating.
