What Are The Symptoms Of Leukemia?
over the last few months my 14 year old daughter has lost a bunch of weight. She wasn t over weight. Now within the last month she s been waking up covered in bruises it looks like she got the crap beat out of her. Should I be worried about leukemia? There is no family history of it.

Welcome to H.C.M.I am Dr Krishna Dubey.
Dear friend , symptoms of your daughter can be due to other causes also.So do not be so scared.I advised you to approach labarotary for complete blood count and peripheral blood film to rule out leukemia and other blood disorders.
If possible then do it hurry So your daughter can be completely normal and live her normal routine life.
Thanx for query.
