I am a 25 year old female very involved in sports and healthy. For almost two months I have been feeling very fatigued, I have been getting many unexplained bruises which are not going away, mostly on my legs, and I have been experiencing bone pain with weight bearing. My doctor thinks it is a stress fracture and told me to rest. She also did blood work which showed elevated neutrophils and monocytes. This worried me but I was told I probably had a cold. I am not getting better and all my symptoms seem to be getting worse. My wandering mind goes to bone cancer or some cancer of the blood. Could there be another explaination other than a cold and a stress fracture to explain the blood work, bruising, bone pain, and fatigue?
Thanks
