It is not probable to discuss it a chairman how prolonged he or she will live with CML. Because a presence census data have been totalled in five-year (or infrequently one-year) intervals, they might not paint new advances done in a diagnosis or diagnosis of this cancer. This matter is quite loyal of CML since of a vital alleviation in diagnosis which has occurred during a past 5 years.
The five-year relations presence rate (the commission of patients who tarry during slightest 5 years after a cancer is detected, incompatible those who die from alternative diseases) for CML depends upon a proviso of a disease, alternative biologic characteristics of a CML, as well as a patient’s reply to treatment.
In 2006, an estimated 4,500 people (2,550 group as well as 1,960 women) in a United States will be diagnosed with CML as well as an estimated 600 deaths (300 group as well as 300 women) will occur.
Good Luck as well as we instruct illness for we or a desired one!!!!

    I guess it depends if your having treatment or what stage your CML is diagnosed, I have added some info I found on the net, what the stages are and some outcomes of survival (remission)
    Three Phases of CML
    Chronic myelogenous leukemia has three phases: 1) the chronic phase; 2) the accelerated phase; and 3) the blast crisis phase.
    Chronic Phase
    Most CML patients are diagnosed while in the chronic phase of the disease. During this phase, CML symptoms are less severe because CML cells can mature into functioning white cells and platelets. Thus, infection or bleeding complications do not occur in the chronic phase and patients can function normally if treated, bringing the total white cell count down to near normal. This is accompanied by shrinkage of the spleen, improvement in hemoglobin concentration, and a return to feeling well.
    Accelerated and Blast Crisis Phases
    In the accelerated phase, patients lose their response to treatment, the white cell and platelet counts may be abnormal, the spleen may enlarge, the patient may feel ill and other complications may ensue.
    During the blast crisis phase, the number of blast cells increases in marrow and blood; the white cell and platelet counts become very abnormal; and bleeding and infections may occur. Symptoms such as fatigue, shortness of breath, and abdominal pain, and signs such as bone pain and bleeding, may develop.
    3 to 5 years is the life expectancy after diagnosis of chronic myelogenous leukemia if no treatment or transplant is done
    20% of chronic myelogenous leukemia patients has a relapse during the first five years after a transplant
    50% of chronic myelogenous leukemia patients will be in remission at 8 years if they receive a transplant within one year of being diagnosed as in the chronic phase
