I’m super worried I’ve had a full blood count done my blood copper has came back low all my iron bloods have come back empty like very low and my b12 bloods have come back extremely high, I get severe night sweats fatigue constantly tired and I break out in bruises everywhere on my body, I have just been referred to hematology and just had blood tests done there for white cells etc to see what else could be going on and they mentioned the word blood cancer, I’m terrified I have 2 young girls 4yrs and 2yrs, like what happens if my cells from that one come back abnormal would it mean it’s likely I will have cancer or would there be other treatment needed doing I don’t know doesn’t help I also have EUPD PTSD ADHD so my anxiety is high

Dear @mumof2girls94,
I am sorry you are going through such a worrying time. I am glad you have found us and you can share your worries.
There can be many reasons for bloods results to be out of range, this does not always mean cancer, but your GP has done the right thing by referring you to haematology to have this investigated, particularly as you are having symptoms also.
You may find our 'Blood cancer symptoms and signs’ page helpful to read - it contains information on what to look out for, as well as prompts for questions you might like to ask your doctor.
Haematology will likely take some further blood tests and do a full assessment of your symptoms. I really hope you hear from them with an appointment soon.
We would be very happy to support you and if you would like to talk things through our number is 0808 2080 888.
Best Wishes,
Heidi J (Support Services Nurse)
