Can you provide me with progressive symptoms of lukemia?

A friend of mine who has lukemia has developed a lump in her thyroid and one in her Stomach--both are causing her constant pain. They have reduced the size of the lump in her throid but have not been able to work on the lump in her stomach because her white Blood count is too low. I know it's possilble to live for a long time with lukemia but her symptons have us all worried. What do these symptoms indicate?
Please see the web pages for more details on Leukemia. Leukemia is a broad term covering a spectrum of diseases. Leukemia is clinically and pathologically split into its acute and chronic forms.
Furthermore, the diseases are classified according to the type of abnormal Cell found most in the blood.
* When leukemia affects lymphoid cells (lymphocytes and plasma cells), it is called lymphocytic leukemia.
* When myeloid cells (eosinophils, neutrophils, and basophils) are affected, the disease is called myeloid or myelogenous leukemia.
