Signs of leukemia in an 18 month old?
My daughter had some strange lab results- including elevated platelet counts and deteriorating red blood cells. She also fights fevers and chills a lot and is always tired. She has a slight rash that looks like little red bumps all over her body and we're being referred to a hematologist. The doctor who last saw her wouldn't tell me exactly what he thought, but he acted very somber about it all. I'm afraid it's leukemia. She's also extremely pale. She doesnt cry even when she gets hurt. Her sister once bit her so hard she drew blood and she not so much as winced. She didn't cry when they took blood from her at the hospital. She also won't use her right leg because she acts like it hurts to bear weight on it. She's had several x rays and nothing showed up.
Does anyone know other sighs to watch for or have any other ideas of what this may be? Please pray for my baby girl..

I'll certainly pray for you both!

hopefully it's just a lack of iron or a diet problem.

I cannot give you any idea what may be wrong with your girl but I want you to know....
Many times blood results get mixed up. Do not make yourself sick worring about strange blood results until you have had them rechecked.
Sorry your little girl is having this many problems.
Keep up a positive attitude and wait for the specialist to give you a diagnosis.
