Hi.
Thanks for your query.
It is good that you have a great degree of suspicion, but in your case these are not the symptoms or signs of leukemia.
The sure-shot diagnosis is made by very simple tests. Please go for the blood tests to remove the doubts.
Lump at the neck can be a lipoma or a sebaceous cyst. Simple excision will help to get the disease out of the body and help the perfect diagnosis by histology examination.
