A member asked:
What exactly is mild leukemia, is it fatal?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Mild? no such thing: There is no such a thing as mild leukemia. We classify leukemia as an acute vs chronic leukemia; a b cell-leukemia vs a t cell leukemia; but not as a mild leukemia. Discuss in detail with your doctor what he/she meant.
