To be worried about this

[User42272]

I’ve been getting petechiae spots for a few months. I thought nothing of them I’ve since looked on the internet and it’s linked to leukaemia. I spoke to the doctor and he’s said it’s unlikely to be anything serious being as I’m not unwell. I’ve seen though that people can have these cancers and be well and it’s only picked up on a blood test.

My daughter had them at some point, that and bruising all around her legs. I was so worried and told to go to her go. She had a blood test and everything came back normal. That was 4 years ago and she's absolutely fine. Still get the bruises but not the spots.

Glad your daughter was okay.

My daughter gets these rashes every time she’s poorly. It’s never been anything serious. Some people just get them.

If I google I've got most of the symptoms of prostate cancer. I'm a woman. Please try & step away from Dr Google and have a chat with your GP if you can. Hope everything is ok.

Thank you I’ve got a blood test this coming week. I’m just worried that they will take a long time to come back and I will just be worrying. I understand they are under a lot of pressure with this going on.
