Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. Treatment of leukemia depends on type and stage of leukemia. In general chemotherapy is the treatment of choice. Bone marrow transplantation is the permanent treatment for most of the leukemia. They are mainly 2 types myeloid leukemia and lymphoid leukemia each of them are acute or chronic. In general the prognosis of chronic myeloid leukemia and chronic lymphocytic leukemia is good. It depends on blast cell percentage and many other factors.
