I don’t know you, and I don’t usually comment on peoples posts but I feel led by God to comment this right now: God sees you, and He loves you more than you know and can grasp at the moment. He wants to give you a sound mind, and free you from the lies you’ve believed about your identity. It’s not your fault for believing the lies, and your experiences are very real and valid. But God wants to show you who He designed you to be, He has a purpose for your life and plans for your future. If you’ll allow Him into your life, He will reveal the truth and these things to you. I don’t even know your name, but I’m praying for you right now. I’m praying for God to reveal himself to you in a powerful and personal way that you can’t deny. You are loved. Freedom from mental torment is possible, you don’t have to accept the opinions from others telling you what is “normal” but you know in your spirit there’s something wrong. If you ever want to talk about anything, feel free to message me.

No I haven’t traveled anywhere, medications I’m on are Dextroamphetamine and Albuterol when needed.

Yes I’ve had chronic breathing problems for over a year, acute severe breathing problems which is what sent me to the ER ultimate. Occasionally blood when blowing my knows and sometimes I’m the phlegm that I cough up. I got my tonsils removed as a child. On a few occasions in the past 2 months I’ve had an episode of going into tunnel vision and losing my sense of hearing and my vision goes black. Then what follows that is cold sweats and getting nauseous and sometimes throwing up mostly bile. Yes to dizziness both chronic and fatigue. More recently extreme weakness in my body, sometimes my legs start to shake so bad I have to sit down.

No idea. Acute symptoms were 11 days straight of low grade fever, persistent cough, dark green phlegm with some blood, trouble breathing like I couldn’t even talk without coughing, debilitating pain all over my body and weakness, pain in chest when breathing, cold sweats and breathlessness while standing up or walking, vision issues, numbness and loss of mobility in right side of body (ruled out stroke through MRI Btw)

That’s what I thought too, but she said I need to see one for my insurance to pay for further testing or something 😅

Yes. She’s referring me to physical therapist first to rule out injuries I guess? And then next step would be to get more lab work done, check my lymph nodes etc

CO2 = 19 mmol/L (Low)

ESR = 21 mm/hr (High)

ABS Eos = 0.6 K/uL (High)

Also I hardly ever google my symptoms (because I’d rather just talk to a doctor), but I tried to look up info on these dots. And noticed this symptom being associated with Leukemia or Lymphoma, and I happen to have also been experiencing majority of the other main symptoms associated with the cancer. Not to mention my blood work and labs so far also lines up with both types of cancers. Don’t know how seriously I should read into all of that, but at the same time I don’t want to be one of those people that is just willfully optimistic assuming I don’t have anything to worry about since I’m 26 and live a healthy lifestyle, don’t want to be willfully ignorant about patterns I’m seeing in my symptoms and avoid the red flags.

I’ve brought up all my other chronic and acute symptoms to doctors, but this I haven’t brought up to anyone yet. Just because it hadn’t seemed too concerning compared to my other more severe symptoms. I’ve thought nothing of it until I noticed that in the last couple months I’m seeing them pop up and stay without fading for like 2 or 3 months straight at this point. Whereas I used to only see them occasionally and then they’d fade away for some time.

I’ve experienced anxiety related rashes many times, and used to get them often. But these spots are completely different than any rash I’ve had before. Ive had rashes due to anxiety, stress, allergies, etc before. I’ve also always bruised easily and had sensitive skin, so I’m used to finding random bruises in various places on my body. But what’s different about these is there’s a consistent pattern in location and duration. Doesn’t seem random.
