You or someone you care about may have been diagnosed with leukemia. This video will help you understand more about this type of cancer and how it affects your body. Your blood contains fluid and three types of cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. These cells are made in the spongy center of your bones called bone marrow. All blood cells come from parents cells called stem cells. Red blood cells carry oxygen to your body's tissues. Platelets help your blood to clot and white blood cells help your body fight infections and any other harmful invaders or diseases. Leukemia is a cancer that originates from certain white blood cells while they're forming. In leukemia, the stem cells in the bone marrow make too many abnormal white blood cells that don't work properly. This weakens your immune system. Leukemia may also reduce the amount of platelets and red blood cells. The main types of leukemia are named for the cells they originate from and how quickly they develop. For example, lymphocytic leukemia affects white blood cells called lymphocytes. In this disease, too many lymphoid stem cells develop into abnormal lymphocytes. Myeloid leukemia affects white blood cells called myeloid cells. In this type of cancer, too many myeloid cells become abnormal and divide into abnormal myeloblasts or granulocytes, which are different types of white blood cells. Each type of leukemia can be either acute, which means it progresses quickly or chronic, which means it develops over time. Symptoms for leukemia vary depending on the type of leukemia and which blood cells are affected. Sometimes leukemia has no symptoms but in general, the symptoms may include feeling tired and weak, bruising and bleeding easily, fever, weight loss, and frequent infections. As part of the diagnosis, your doctor will try to find out the size of the cancer tumors and if the cancer has spread. This is called staging. Staging varies with different types of leukemia. In general, an earlier stage or phase means less cancer growth and spread. A higher stage or phase means more cancer growth and spread throughout the body. The cause of leukemia isn't known but there are some things that can increase your risk. Being exposed to high dose radiation, having certain abnormal genes, infection with certain viruses such as the Epstein-Barr virus, long term exposure to certain chemicals such as benzene and chemotherapy drugs, smoking and older age. As you deal with a diagnosis of leukemia continue to talk to your doctor and your cancer care team.

I was diagnosed with acute promyelocytic leukemia exactly 4 years ago (I was 17). I was lucky to find out on an early stage, and the treatment, despite being awfully harsh with a lot complications, was successfull and I'm in full remission today.
Thank you for sharing your story.
Glad to hear this, how did you found out plz
@@ALGfunk My parents suspected because I was feeling sick and looking pale for nearly a week, and they decided to take me to the hospital when I had a bleeding in my mouth. They run blood tests and it was all abnormal so they suspected leukemia. They did a bone marrow biopsy to confirm and stage of the disease
May God bless you in all time😊😊
@@lexieggrey6255 🥺🥺🥺
My half brother had this 3 times and had a 10% chance he would make it and he did and now I thank God for having him
Mashallah we are lucky
My dad didn’t survive at the age of 37 because of AML. It’s been 6 years but I still had a hard time accepting it. May God blessed his soul
Amen
I'm so sorry for your loss. I hope you have a great life ahead and may your dad rest in peace.💖
I’m a aml survivor but would take your dads place if I could
@@KQuinn672you survived for a reason stay strong❤
I'm so sorry for your loss. I'm proud of you for being strong everyday. May God bless you and may your dear father rest in peace ❤
My 7 year old cousin was diagnosed with leukemia when he was 3 and he was getting chemotherapy for years. Sadly he passed away in the hospital during chemotherapy and I was devastated he’s in a better place now.😢💔🕊️

and helpful for medical students :)
Yesss
@@shaliao835 pretty much the same thing.
i found biology boring but ever since 2020 when i discovered this channel, i have religiously watched and learnt so much about human anatomy and medical science. Time very well invested. Thank u dear sir/madam for providing such informative videos
Religiously ?
@@OmkarPatil-kk2mb HELL YEAHH!!! RELIGIOUSLY!
@meowstarperson yeah man. Thanks for cleaning it up

Was diagnosed with CML in March of 2007. I was put on Gleevac originally but was taken off and put on Tasigna after a few years. Found out at 38 and am now 53. Never give up hope.
Me too diagnosed as CML patient in 2016 and sadly the body doesnt respond to any medicine. Imatinib dasatinib and nilotinib all were failed. But still alive
@@tharoshikameherani1857 what phase?
@@tharoshikameherani1857 How is this possible? I was diagnosed last year and on Sprycel. I thought with CML and no treatment then the average time is 2-3 years. I mean I am happy for you but how?

I worked with someone who lost his best friend to this. Got diagnosed and died within 6 months. He was 22 and healthy. Towards the end he was very thin. Incredibly sad.
My 3 years old daughter diagnosed with ALL, 3 months back. Currently she is receiving chemotherapy and response is good.
Oh, how is she now?
@@user-zf5zq4cy3h she is ok. Chemo still on .Thanks for asking
@@blunttruth5896how is she now? I hope she’s way better💞
@@congotopnews9477her treatment is completed 2 months back. Cured and started living normal life. 🤞
One of my best friends passed away recently from Leukemia, we use to game online whenever we could and have great moments together. I hope he is in a better place now.
If anyone needs hope, let me tell you never to give up. I was diagnosed with AML while already dealing with multiple sclerosis, a seizure disorder & a host of other things. Well, next month i will celebrate 5 YEARS remission. Stay positive!
Oh!
I am so happy for u.
I am an elder sister. I have a younger sister. She has some weird symptoms. Idk what doest it mean.
1) light headed
2) tired & weakness
3) coughs and flu
4) nose bleed 1 time (gum bleeds)
just a little bit
5) today she has a unbearable pain on her teeth,ear & arms.
But I said my mom about it & she doesn’t care about it. She wanted to say I am much hypochondriac.
Basically I am so much obsessed with my sister. Maybe I love her a lot
@@AK-zw3yz i can tell you love her a lot. She is very lucky. As to what might be wrong with her, there's no way to say over the internet. only a doctor who examines her can diagnose her. If she continues having those problems & your mom doesn't listen, talk to another adult that can help... maybe another family member or teacher. I hope that helps and your sister feels better!
@@Lori_L Thank u soo much.
Idk what will be happen next.
I hope for the best. I don’t want to lose my sister
@@Lori_L btw in which age were u diagnose?
Hi Lori...I had a distal Pancreactomy and spleenectomy a year ago after they found a tumor the size of a grapefruit on my pancreas. During that time they told me they were concerned about my white blood cells and I heard them mention possible leukemia. I haven't gone back to follow up on this but a couple of months ago I started to get sharp bone pains throughout my entire body...they are DAILY. they are sharp needle stabbing pains. Is this one of the symptoms? thank you so much and I hope to hear from you soon
Im really glad this channel posted this and ive been waiting for it for a long time because its really hard to go through leukemia and we need to spread awareness about it. Love and good luck for the unfortunate today, from an acute lymphoblastic leukemia survivor.
Thank you for your comment!
May our good LORD continue to bless you dear🙏🏾❤️🇹🇿

I don't even think I could process it
My Wonder Bracelets will help after Chemotherapy.
How did you find it out?
My mother just died 1week ago. She acute lymphoblastic leukemia. She was diagnosed on february 2022, she started feeling unwell since dec 2021. She cant undergo chemotherapy due to underlying sickness which makes it risky for her. She only survive 8 months, but she is in pain only for 2 months. Im glad she dont feel the pain too long eventho it is so hard for me to let her go. Please pray for her and recite alfatihah for her, ameen

BEING A MEDICAL STUDENT THIS IS QUITE HELPFUL FOR US🙂🙂🙂😊😊
I have had CLL for any years…since 1986 where my first elevated lymphocyte count was over the normal range. Officially diagnosed in 2000 with a bone marrow test. I am still at stage 0 and never treated. My only lab test that we watch is my platelets which run below normal. I see my hematologist every 6 months. I am 81 and still busy and active and I do not concern myself about the leukemia.
Damn, that’s crazy

A girl at my school had leukemia and no one knew until she had an appendectomy. She bled out on the operating table.
Where this happened?
It's a Symptoms of Cancer.
i have a cousin, he's around 9 or 10 years old and last year (2021) he got diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia and on January 2022 he passed away:(
our family did everything to save him even though we already knew he will soon go in heaven with my uncle. we even thought he will survive because his condition is getting much better. i hope he's happy and not feeling any pain there anymore.
Symptoms?

Yo soy de Buenos Aires, me descubrieron leucemia mieloide aguda. El unico sintoma que recuerdo fueron varios moretones en las piernas. Me lo descubrieron estando internada por covid 19 en octubre del 2020. Tengo 75 años,,y tuve suerte de que exista la quimio que me dan 7 dias al mes dos inyecciones cada vez. Ahora me siento bien y segun la hematologa respondi excelente al tratamiento. Pero sinceramente me surgen 2 dudas. Tendre que hacer quimio para siempre? Y puede haber sido el covid19, estuve 11 dias internada con dificultad para respirar, pero no hubo necesidad de terapia intensiva, me recuperé bien, pasados un par de meses. Pero me quedó la sorpresa de la leucemia...se algo de ingles, pero me encantaría que tradujeran al español esas notas tan útiles. Mucha, muchas gracias!!!
Leukocyte illness and disease, wherein the white blood cells overrun the red blood cells. The patient has to be administered first with compounds meds or vials in order to prevent the case. Sodium bicarbonate, magnesium bicarbonate, they belong to a group of compounds that immediately and effectively prevents those cancers/leukemia to form in the leukocytes. The signs and symptoms of patients suffering from leukemia are slow healing of wounds, this is the inability of the leukocyte to absorb quickly the amines needed for cell renewal in the upper and lower dermis that creates and releases the protein needed to heal the wound. General practices....SMEs... Respectively.

is BESREMi first choice treatment to fight Leukemia now?
My niece with age 18 years is passed away 2 days before due to AML M2 . A month before she feel tired , fever and bleed from her teeth(once a day) . After that I bring her to medical , after that doctor found typhoid , low hemoglobin and prescribe medicine . After that for 8 days there is no fever and bleeding . Then she feels tired ,fever and again to hospitalised . On CBC doctor find cancer and admit her . Then she becomes weaker day by day so she don't be diagnosed with chemotherapy. And after 19 days her fight will ended against cancer . And now she is leaving us permanently 😭.
Can you tell me how much bleeding? Because I also have gum bleeding on a particular time in a day.... Just one drop....not even on my saliva if I look for it only I notice it ..... I also check my hb a week before it was normal..... I don't feel sick or anything just little bit gum bleeding I am so terrified

Were you taking tablets?

I was diagnosed with AML (acute myeloid leukemia) flt 3 mutation in 2015. There is no staging in AML. Mutations can cause more likelihood of relapse tho. Hence flt3 mutation is aggressive which is why I needed a bone marrow transplant. So far, I’ve remained in remission.
