    They don't teach you in school that you need to fight for your life, even if you don't know you need too. Doctor will tell you your fine, young, see you next year. You have to be smart, and figure it out yourself. One dismissive doctor could be the only chance someone had.

    this is the second video I've seen where they dont' mention the bone marrow test - which I had within a week of being diagnosed at a hospital as having "some kind of cancer". The hospital dr didn't say what kind because he couldn't have possibly known what kind. I don't understand English and Australian medicine. And waiting two weeks for a hospital contact? Why not immediately go to an oncologist? Absurd.

There doesn’t seem to be much hope given in the information I have found. It is a helpless feeling. Just praying that God will make a way.

    I am getting sick and tired of being fobbed off by GPs. I too started losing weight and had night sweats which I thought was just a long lingering effect of menopause. I'm a keen powerlifter and I suddenly became aware that doing my regular workout was getting hard. I started failing lifts which I previously did with ease. Walking to the shops and going home with a small bag of shopping entailed a rest on a couple of garden walls, I was so tired and out of breath. Absolutely ridiculous! I instinctively knew something wasn't right and telephoned GP. No appointments available (of course!) and I didn't have "shortness of breath" snapped the receptionist, "because you can still talk" but she made an appointment for me to see an emergency overflow GP practice in 2 days. Saw the doctor who thought I had menopause symptoms! (I was 65 at the time!) and ordered a full blood test. I mean really! Where do they get these people! Had to wait 5 days for a phlebotomy appointment by which time I was getting weaker. Did the blood test and was telephoned at 8am the next morning by our local teaching hospital and was told to come in NOW, no ifs or buts. I knew what was coming when the Macmillan nurse escorted me to the consultant haematologist's room, I had cancer. It was there that they admitted me to isolation, had bone marrow biopsies, heart scans, x-rays, a whole hoopla of testing and was told I had CML in blast crisis. My feet hardly touched the ground as they started the first round of 5 days of chemo and yes it was gruelling. I picked up a fungal infection in my lungs and got admitted to ICU. 7 weeks in hospital isolation and they are still treating the fungal infection and cannot proceed until it's killed off. I'm currently at home on targeted tablet therapy (was imatinib and then changed to the stronger dasatinib to really keep a foot on the white blood cells getting out of control). So now I'm in a state of Chronic myeloid leukaemia but stable. Apparently my "type" has been closely studied in the labs and they have even found a suitable donor which is my only chance of a cure. My hospital doctors and specialist nurse are just great. Sorry this is so long but if you FEEL something is not right, stand your ground and insist a full blood screen.
