my cousin ..a couple of years ago ..in his late 40's was diagnosed with cll...so far his spleen ruptured and was removed.his white count has been as high as 78k but fluctuates as low as 58k..can anyone with personal experience tell me what he can expect as time goes on...thanx

Don't have personal experience with CLL, but here's a link to people who do. One of the founders of this site 'Granny Barb' documents her experiences with CLL. This site, funded by the American Cancer Organization [ACOR], also has links to excellent information resources as well as to various support groups for different hematologic cancers and bone marrow transplant patients.
