What are the signs and symptoms of the disease?

Many times, CML causes no symptoms and is found only when a routine blood sample is checked. The most common symptom is severe fatigue. The person may also have unexplained weight loss and night sweats. Occasionally, the person can feel pain in the upper left side of the abdomen due to a swollen spleen.
