In CLL beside blood picture, blood smear, ultrasound and bone marrowbiopsy is important. Examination is important to see if there is any lymph node involvement or not. If CLL is just in your blood and blood complete picture results are as you have told, then you are suffering from low risk, stage 1 CLL. Hope you will get well soon.
