Yes if they did a bone marrow test and it turned out negative this is a good sign, you may still have CLL but it has not affected your bone marrow so this is a good sign that you do not need a bone marrow transplant.

Yes that is good and a less than 1% chance, that is about as good as it can get. The test performed at the Mayo clinic is a much more thorough test that is why they show a less then 1% when the hospitaln saw none. But that is a good sign and chances are also good that it will not get worse.
