Eosinophilic Leukemia – Symptoms, Risk Factors, Diagnosis and Treatment

What Happens to People Diagnosed with Eosinophilic Leukemia?

The outlook for eosinophilic leukemia depends on different factors. These are:

  • the type of eosinophilic leukemia that you have
  • the severity of your symptoms
  • whether or not organ damage is present
  • your age and overall health

In most cases, morbidity and mortality due to eosinophilic leukemia happens due to organ damage that can happen because of high eosinophil levels. A couple examples of complications that can result from organ damage are heart failure and blood clots.

In some cases, your symptoms may not be due to eosinophilic leukemia, they could be caused by other conditions that need attention. If you’re diagnosed with eosinophilic leukemia, your doctor will create a treatment plan tailored to your condition.
