New fear :(
« on: March 09, 2008, 11:26:38 AM »
I have a new fear.
Leukaemia .
I found this one blood spot on my skin (paticiea sp )under my eye the other day  and I freaked.
I've also been waking up hot and clammy feeling all  over (night sweets??)
My lymph nodes feel achy :( . The last time I had a full blood count was in April of last year and all was good.

so scared again  :traurig001:

My friends aunt has Leukemia and her symptoms were rashes over her entire body and unusual
fatigue. Night sweats can be indicative of many illness types including anxiety. Night sweats are usually
drenching when caused by Leukemia. Your symptoms seem to be indicative of anxiety. I would not jump to
to conclusions. You can see how you are in the next few days or if it makes you feel better , call your GP
for an appointment for a checkup and tell him/her of your concerns. I am never afraid to tell my internal
medicine doctor my concerns, no matter how inconsequential they may. Hope you feel better.

I to have this fear because of my night sweats. What is a blood spot?  I just found out that I am pregnant and they are taking me off my meds and this is increasing the anxiety greatly.

I have blood spots.  I talked to my doctor.  He said alot of people have them.  It can be from taking hot showers or baths and from excessive sweating.  He said what i had was minor.  he said some people are covered in them.  I would not worry.  It is actually normal

I have them too, and have the same fear as you.  I actualy had slightly elevated red blood cell count, which is the opposite of it or so i know.

Thanks guys for your replies.
I'm not really worried about the cherry angioma . I have a few of those but they don't worry me. Its the blood spots on the skin (broken blood vessel's) Petechiae

I had one under my eye the other day which started this fear of Leukemia . I now found more on my neck.  I went to sleep last night with my neck lace on  and where I was lying on it , it left red blood spots on my neck. This necklace has big beads (its a goth style rosery bead with a cross So the beads are not smooth) Why would  this happen??? The pressure of me lying on these beads caused me to get a Petechiae rash  :traurig001:  I'm freaking out again.

Does anyone know how you get Petechiae???? With Leukemia does Petechiae just show up out of the blue or do you have to injure the skin to get the rash????
