Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML) Support Group
Chronic myelogenous leukemia affecst the balance of blood cells in the body, disrupting the normal balance. The cancer cells eventually begin to outnumber and push out the good cells, and could lead to anemia and easier bleeding/bruising. If you or a loved one is diagnosed with CML, this is the community to discuss your experience.
Can someone tell me what is being done in terms of CML research?
Where can i find the most recent clinical trials? What are the best CML hospitals out there?
I was diagnosed 5 months ago and I am asking this because i want to know what are the most recent drugs available, vaccines, etc that i could try...
