Further resources and links
There are many websites that have information relevant to people living with leukaemias. If you need to discuss or get more information about what you have found on any of these websites speak with your specialist, nurse or allied health professional.
Some sites offer online forums. You can put forward a question or try to find someone in a similar situation. You will need to check that the information is credible by checking who prepared the information, what sources were used and see if there is a date.
