Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL)

[Katiedobie2016]

My Dobergirl Katie developed Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) at 6-1/2. Her lymphocytes went from normal (~1,000-5,000) to 96,000 in about 3 months. After 2 months of Chlorambucil and Prednisone, her numbers are back down to 6,000 and we're weaned her off of the Prednisone. To see her, you'd never know she has a medical condition at.

Has anyone else in the Doberman community dealt with CLL? If so, I'd like to shared treatments, experiences, etc. Please post her or send me a PM and we can talk.
Thanks,
Randy

It must be hard to go through all this and I hope you find someone who has be been in your shoes. Always helpful to be able to share information and have someone who understands first hand.
