What Causes Random Chills And Body Pain?
Brief Answer:
Considerations
Detailed Answer:
hello and thank you for sending the question.
If you had a normal complete blood count it would be very unlikely that you have leukemia. Again the only way to prove this is with repeat laboratory studies.
I suspect that your doctor will contact you with the results of your complete blood count as soon as they're available.
From the symptoms you have describedit sounds more like you have been dealing with a viral syndrome which usually will run its course over 3 to 10 days. Try to work on focusing on good hydration and getting plenty of rest and I'm sure you will feel better soon. Please follow up with your doctor for the remainder of your test results.
Sincerely,
Dr. Galamaga

Thank you! That helps ease my mind a bit...what would be the more common symptoms with leukemia?
Brief Answer:
Considerations
Detailed Answer:
thanks for the follow up.
Symptoms of leukemia are somewhat nonspecific. Sometimes symptoms can include extreme fatigue, bleeding and easy bruising as well as occasionally fevers and chills.
Again with a completely normal complete blood count just recently this would make looking extremely unlikely in your case.
again please follow up with your doctor to review your most recent blood test results.
