Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a type of blood cancer that affects the bone marrow, where blood cells are produced. It is characterized by an excessive and slow multiplication of certain white blood cells.
How it may show up: In early stages it usually causes few symptoms; over time, fatigue, early feeling of fullness, sweating, or discomfort in the upper abdomen may appear.
How it is identified: It is frequently detected from abnormalities in blood tests requested for other reasons.
Who treats it? The hematologist is the specialist who studies and follows up on this blood disease. If your tests show significant changes or you have persistent symptoms, it is a good idea to seek a specialized evaluation to clarify the picture.
