Frequently Asked Questions about Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia was originally developed as an on-line resource for the CLL List. Introduced in May 1999, the on-line version of the CLL FAQ is hosted by the Association of Cancer Online Resources, Inc. ("ACOR") a non-profit corporation registered in New York State. The latest version of the CLL FAQ can be found on-line at, http://cllfaq.acor.org
The CLL FAQ is primarily intended for new patients who are dealing with the shock of diagnosis and who are trying to learn about their disease. It is by no means an exhaustive document, but as its name implies, it answers some of the frequently asked questions.
The CLL FAQ was created in North America, which is evident in the language and the terminology that is used throughout. The CLL community, on the other hand, is worldwide, and it is hoped that the language and terminology used in the CLL FAQ will not impact negatively on its usefulness in other parts of the world.
It has been said that it is important to understand and take charge of one's CLL. Hopefully, the CLL FAQ will be a helpful resource in this process.
