Hi all,
I'm a 23 year old mum to a 2 year old toddler. At the beginning of December I started to take very bad dizzy spells losing my vision etc it would go away - I got some tests done at the gp and they came with with my 7th urine infection and High white blood cell count so have antibiotics but after anti biotics the cell count went up again meaning my body was showing inflammation or infection. I seen that as normal as I catch everything and anything I have no immune system to anything. Anyway the gp asked to repeat them. Since I've had severe body ache and everything hurts my armpits to my joints in my ankles. I am extremely lethargic and fall asleep everytime in the car (I don't drive so I can fall asleep) The doctor called for another lot of bloods as there was no improvement- to be done and then called me in to discuss my results. He told me the lymphocytes in my blood were showing high growth and has referred me to see a haematologist as he think it's possible lymphoma. I get occasional night sweats but not enough to change my clothes I have lost a stone in weight and feel nauseous most days along with the lack of energy, lethargy and body ache. They have prescribed some pain medication but waiting on a letter with an appt. I have no lumps could this still be lymphoma? Heads been in overdrive as happens to most people when they find out they have a possible cancer diagnosis worrying about being a mum to my daughter - I haven't told my family only my partner as don't want to worry anyone but hoping to hear some advice or anyone going through or feeling the same
