A member asked:
What is the life expectancy of someone with cll leukemia?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Varies a lot: The life expectancy for someone with cll varies dramatically depending upon the stage, certain other "prognostic" markers and one's overall health. Life expectancy can be anywhere between 2 and more than 20 years. In fact, many people with cll don't need treatment for many years, and die of unrelated causes.

Usually many yrs: Many pts survive many years with this diagnosis./ your doctor likely discussed the genetic tests and blood work that can help define the rate of progression expected with current therapy. A small percentage have a rapid course of disease.
