A member asked:
If lukemia is detected in blood ( god forbids), is it still cureable?

It depends : It depends on many factors, including what type of leukemia it is, what stage it is in, and the underlying health of the person who gets it. Hope that helps.

Yes, remission: is possible, but the rate of remission depends on the type of leukemia and patient-related factors, such as age.
