Anybody on treatment for CLL: What kind and what side effects?

Welcome, @sveta25. Good questions about treatment for chronic lymphocytic leukemia. As you likely know treatments for chronic lymphocytic leukemia may include a "watch and wait" approach, targeted therapy, chemotherapy, immunotherapy and bone marrow transplant, also known as bone marrow stem cell transplant. Other treatment options may include CAR-T cell therapy, radiation therapy and clinical trials. Which treatment is right for you depends on whether you have symptoms and the extent of your cancer, called the stage.
