Good day! last summer 2019, I found something like a small red dot on my arm (only one dot) it doesn't go pake when pressed. Later, I Googled it and it gave me a term called "petechiae" from that moment, I read, Googled until I found out that Leukemia is one of the possible causes of petechiae, it gave me a complete shock, my heart beats fast, I became anxious, worried, paranoid about these symptoms, from that moment I started being so anxious about leukemia, I suffered depression, anxiety attacks, and lastly being a hypochondriac. I am worried because leukemia is a very serious disease and I freaked out because I'm afraid to have those illness because I'm still young and I still have dreams in life.
We visited a gp and requested a blood tests including cbc. My blood test came out normal, my wbc are fine, my rbc are fine, I asked 2 gp's to ask for opinion, and they both said the blood tests are normal. And I feel relieved.
Now I have a petechiae on my hips, take note. My case do not appear in clusters, they don't appear in clusters they only appear as one dot and they appear occasionally, still I am worried beacuse I don't think it's normal. I am worried about leukemia and other terminal illnesses related to petechiae.
I have petechiae which is associated with leukemia and its freaking the hell out of me. I don't experience such symptoms such as general weakness, I don't even look pale, my blood tests are fine last year, I do not experience shortness of breath. I am generally feeling well, but I'm still worried about petechiae because it is a "symptom" of leukemia according to Google. And I'm literally scared and worried because I'm still young.
Guys any advice? Ideas? Thank you in advance🙂
