Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL)
Symptoms of CLL
In early stages of CLL, most people have no symptoms, and the disease is diagnosed only because of an increased white blood cell count. Later symptoms may include Enlarged lymph nodes Fatigue Loss of appetite Weight loss Night sweats Shortness of breath when exercising A sense of abdominal fullness resulting from an enlarged spleen As CLL progresses, people may appear pale and bruise easily. Bacterial, viral, and fungal infections may occur late in the course of the disease as the bone marrow produces fewer healthy white blood cells to fight infection.
