Large Granular Lymphocyte (LGL) and Chronic Lymphocytic (CLL) together

Hi,

My Aunt has had Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) for many years, and lately has been treated for it with chemo, transfustion, etc. Now she has been found to also have large granular lymphocyte (LGL). We are looking for doctors that have seen patients with both of these conditions together and bit able to treat. Also, her white blood cell count is extremely low at this point, so we need to move fast!

Thanks, any recommendations would be great!

    Are you near
    New York - Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center is the best. Also go on GOOGLE and type "the best doctors in America" and than search by specialty. Good Luck
