How Is Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia Treated?

I have a neighbor that says she has Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (sorry if i spelled that wrong) I know she does not, but regardless she gets completely beligerantly drunk off of vodka every night. My question is could this even be possible if she were receiving chemo? By the way she says one minute she is having radiation treatments, and another she is having chemo.

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.

Treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia depends on stage.
In early stage no treatment is required. Just wait and watch approach is sufficient. In later stage chemotherapy should be given.
Consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly.
