Leukemia can affect many parts of the body, including the organs of the cardiovascular and digestive systems. But what are the major symptoms of leukemia?...
my thryoperoxidase antibody is over 6000 and my thyroglobin is over 400 ( was only 90 last year). I always have low platelets and with these increasing numbers I'm concerned about leukemia. I had a CBC done today and am awaiting results. My physician says not to worry, I have Hashimotos thyroditis and there's really nothing we do except monitor until thyroid depletes itself. Last year I did get all the symptoms of thyroditis and it was so severe I should have been hospitalized. I still get bouts of tachycardia but not as severe. My body cannot handle stress anymore. I get lightheaded when in stressful situations. I get night sweats now and then. I really don't know if I should "wait " this out. Isn't there any further testing I can do? Oh, my eyes often stare into space a lot as well.
