Facts about leukemia
There are 2.5 trillion (give or take) of red blood cells in your body at any moment. To maintain this number, about two and a half million new ones need to be produced every second by your bone marrow.That's like a new population of the city of Toronto every second.
Platelets, which are one of the constituents of the blood is produced at the rate of 200 billion per day.
Red blood cells are about seven micrometer in diameter.
Hair is the fastest growing tissue in the body, the next being bone marrow.
The human blood is colorless. It is the hemoglobin; a pigment present in the red blood cells is responsible for the red color of the blood.

Accelerated phase of leukemia - Refers to chronic myelogenous leukemia that is progressing. The number of immature, abnormal white blood cells in the bone marrow and blood is higher than in the chronic phase, but not as high as in the blast phase.
Stage III Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia - There are too many lymphocytes in the blood, and there are too few red blood cells (anemia). Lymph nodes, liver, or spleen may be swollen.
Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia - A slowly progressing disease in which too many white blood cells (called lymphocytes) are found in the body.
Acute Myelogenous Leukemia - AML. A quickly progressing disease in which too many immature blood-forming cells are found in the blood and bone marrow. Also called acute myeloid leukemia or acute nonlymphocytic leukemia.
Smoldering Leukemia - Disease in which the bone marrow does not function normally. Also called preleukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome.
