" Well, I wouldn't take what his nurse said seriously. I think it is a very good idea to get a second opinion from a CLL expert. You should also get a copy of all your lab tests. Ask the doctor for them. If you truly have chronic lymphocytic leukemia, you should know what stage, etc. Also, a good web site for accurate information is CLLTopics.com. And you can google cll forums. "
