Hello everyone
I'm new here and desperate for an answer. I have convinced myself I have leukaemia.
I have had joint pain and bone pain for the past 4-5 months. No swelling but pain in my joints (ankle, knee, wrist, fingers, hip and collar bone) I have been to rheumatologist and she said she doesn't see any indication that I have arthirits or any autoimmune disease. I had a blood test and there is no sign of arthritis.
But my blood test shows I have low neutrophils. My neutrophils are 1.6 and the normal range is 2 - 7.5 .My WBC count is also border at 4, normal is 4 - 11
Neutrophils where 1.7 last month now it's 1.6 - WBC was 4.5 last month, now it's 4. So both neutrophils and WBC are decreasing. I compared this to a blood test I did back in 2015 and my neutrophils were 1.8 and WBC was 4.5.
My doctor doesn't think I have anything serious but I have been searching non-stop and reading stories and case reports and I'm almost 100% postiive I have leukaemia. All my symptoms match with Acute lymphoblastic leukaemia. I read online that Acute lymphoblastic leukaemia causes low neutrophils and bone/joint pain. For the past few days I also wake up with ankle pain. Today I feel tired and i feel like i have the flu (body ache) which is another symptom of leukaemia.
I just realized I have lost about 3 pounds in the past month and I have been eating like usual.
