Ten signs and symptoms of leukemia
Leukemia is cancer of the blood cells
blood cells and platelets are produced in a bone marrow in
Leukemia some new white blood cells
WBC's fail to mature properly
These immature cells continue to reproduce at a rapid rate crowding out healthy cells and producing a host of symptoms
Leukemia is the most common type of childhood cancer affecting about 4,000 children a year in the United States
People often ignore the warning signs of leukemia until the problem becomes severe
It is important to be aware of these signs as addressing the problem early can save you from future
Complications if you have multiple signs and symptoms of this health problem ask your doctor to check your health levels
Here are some warning signs that you may have a leukemia
One abnormal bruising while most people don't connect the two bruising is a blood related occurrence
platelets
Specifically which are produced in the bone marrow along with white and red blood cells are mostly responsively for the clotting of blood
Which is what a bruise is only under the skin
Have a low platelet count or thrombocytopenia is often because if you notice
unexplained bruises or the cuts are not healing as quickly as they should
the connection between
Low platelets and leukemia goes right back to their source and while one might not be indicative of the other if you notice irregular bruising
coupled with unexplained bleeding from the gums in your stool or urine or frequent nosebleeds
Then we recommend you go see a healthcare professional immediately

The symptom of fever and chills is a common one with most infections or diseases of the body
Fever comes on when the body is tried to fight infection as warm environments tend to be less hospitable for infection to grow
Shells come on as the body's way of trying to stay warm when it is called through the contraction and relaxation of muscles
Knowing that these two symptoms are often associated with other ailments poses problems for many and diagnosing as it often manifests as flu-like
Symptoms if these symptoms persist for a week or two and then it is advisable to make an appointment with your physician
Three
night sweats
Much like lymphoma and other types of cancers leukemia sufferers have an incredibly difficult time regulating body temperature
this often results in a back and forth between fever and cold chills and excessive sweating
Which usually presents itself at its worst during the night?
While some might be thinking how am I supposed to tell where I do when I sleep?
The signs are all too apparent in the morning for a person who suffers from night sweats will find their clothes and bed linens often
saturated with sweat
This symptom like many others on this list might not be a cause for concern in and of itself
But rather should be viewed in on a whole coupled with other one to give you a better idea as to what's going on
It is also important to remember that self diagnosis does little good, and if you feel there is an issue for concern
Please see your doctor

Peter Chi
Petechiae are one tiny red dots appear on than skin when capillaries the smallest of the blood vessels burst or bleed out
The reasons for this are multiple, but usually it occurs due to excessive straining or pressure
Most people have experienced this symptom before as it can often result from excessive crying or uncontrollable vomiting
much like the previous point this symptom is often a son of
Thrombocytopenia or low platelet count which might be the sign of an underlying blood disorder such as leukemia
v
abdominal discomfort
The human body in many cases is the sum of all its parts
When one part is hurt injured or infected it can often have an impact on other seemingly unconnected parts of the body?
Leukemia and the spleen is an example of such an occurrence
The lymphatic system is a network of vessels
Tissues and organs through which the body rates itself of waste and toxins often from the blood
Knowing as we do that leukemia is a blood disorder
It makes sense that the system would be affected in many cases of leukemia
The spleen can become swollen and distended causing discomfort in the abdomen as the organ presses on surround organs such as the stomach
This can also be a cause of appetite loss as well
6
weight loss
Similar to most other types of cancer leukemia is characterized by a loss of appetite and excessive weight loss
While this symptom isn't necessarily a direct cause of a cancer or in this case leukemia
It is most often thought of as an offshoot from the many other symptoms that cause this lack of appetite and in turn weight loss
Due to the nature of leukemia and the wait presents itself weightless can often be one of the first outward visible signs of the disease
As a rule it is worth remembering that it is quite abnormal to lose more than 1 to 2 pounds a week especially
When not trying if you or someone you love notices this it might be worth a trip to the doctor
7
fatigue as
Mentioned earlier the body when it's healthy is a like a well-oiled top-performing machine
One of the most impressive functions that the human body can be found in red blood cells and their ability to distribute
Oxygen to all other cells throughout the body
however with leukemia red blood cells become depleted
And thus the body is not supplied with the proper amount of oxygen it needs to perform at peak levels
This causes extreme lethargy
Fatigue and lower all weakness in those suffering known as anemia
It is important to remember that anemia is not a sign in and of itself of a serious disorder
But it should be the cause for a trip to the doctor to investigate further
Eight
frequent urination the
human body is capable of some pretty spectacular feats and many of these happen on a regular basis without us even noticing a
Prime example of this is our body's ability to fight of bacterial and viral infections
Urination is another great example as it is a means that wastes from the blood is expelled
However when the body isn't working properly. Let's say due to the presence of cancer cells then systems in the body including
urination start to act up if
You think you have a clean bill of health and yet find yourself having to use the bathroom more often than normal
It should be a source of concern as leukemia affects white blood cells, which is the body's means of warding off infection?
Join or bone pain
While leukemia is quite literally cancer of the blood it is important to remember the focal point of the ailment and where it begins
the bones
More specifically the long bones found in the body and further to the point the bone marrow found inside
Where blood cells are created from stem cells?
one does not need a medical degree to see the connection between the formation of transferor's blood cells in the burns and the
destruction of healthy ones
This hindrance on the healthy cells may cause your joints and bones to become a gain more painful. Even in rest as the cancer progresses
10
Headaches our bodies are all about balance as it is through this interworking of networks that allows us to not only function but flourish
however when one part of the body stops working properly other parts work double-time and try to compensate as
Leukemia in most cases affects the production of white blood cells the fact that they are abnormal and don't function properly
Causes the body to try and produce more
This excess of white blood cells can obstruct the tiny blood vessels in the brain
Which cause some patients to report frequent headaches as it is easy to imagine this symptom often gets overlooked in its?
