Hey there every1, jus registered today been tryin to look for sum advice on the net. Hope every1s doin ok.
Basically im 20 and last december I started feelin poorly. Muscle aches, bones really ached, jus flu like symptoms was told it was post viral (i didnt think so) had numerous other symptoms since. But lately my muscles and bone pain has been horrible. My joints are crackin and my wrist inparticular cracks all the time its horrible. If I jump up n down its almost as if I can feel my bones movin and grinding. Occasional red dots below my skin
had a few blood tests since then, and always my white blood cell count has been low but I seem to be the only one noticing this occurance? Most recent one about 2 months ago was 2.5 which I think is low from wot ive read? Anyways doc said to come back in december for repeat blood test but hes jus diagnosed me with fibromylagia. I dnt think it is this from reading up about it. And after lookin at signs n symptoms for leukemia im slightly worried to say the least.
Sorry, also forgot to add that wen first felt ill last december I had lumps come up under my arms, lymph nodes which went down, then came up again. Esr has been raised very high at 119, then back down to 19, then raised again. As far as im aware red blood counts not abnormal and other other one was my thyroid which they tested me for and after a physical examination the doc said my neck felt a bit lumpy and bumpy. Recently had a neck ultrasound and they sais they couldnt see anythin suspicious althought last couple of days I felt as though the ones in my groin area were swollen. Hense the docs appointment this friday.
Is there a specific blood test I can request at my local gp that can put my mind at ease I dnt have it., or one that would tell me if I did.
Any advice would be really really appreciated. Im tryin not to worry but easier said than done.
Thanks
xx
