Hello
I was feeling a tad better and less anxious over the Christmas holidays but now the anxiety is back. Since it's summer, I got mosquito bites on my leg which after scratching and prodding, has become a dark reddish brusie-y colour. I immediately thought leukemia given the nodes that I can feel on my neck if I look around. My dilemma is this. I want to go see my doctor to get a blood test just to make sure everything is okay, however, I had one in November and everything came back fine. Am I over-reacting to think that leukemia could've developed within me over the 2 months since my last blood test?

Yes, you are definitely overreacting. You don't have leukemia. Maybe you could stop scratching and prodding your mosquito bites, and stop feeling for lymph nodes if at all possible. You seem to be creating your own symptoms.
