Hi.
Recently i went on holiday and caught a stomach bug. I eventually went to my doctors to get it fixed and he did some routine blood tests. In my blood test it showed up several abnomalities which lead to further blood tests etc. I was told they were testing for something called pernicious (sp?) anaemia and for leukaemia. In the meantime i have been put on B12 injections 3 times a week and folic acid supplement tablets. With more blood tests being taken next week and the week after. I dont really know what advice i'm after. Being a bit of a worrier i suppose can anyone tell me of a similar situation and how it turned out? Or even can anyone tell me anything about either desease? Or basically can anyone tell me how to make the whole thing go away? Because i'm nineteen and rather terrified and as anyone who i know is either freaking out or being "positive" I could just do with someone saying something to make it a bit better in my head.
Thanks.
