Re: Small underskin bleed: could it be leukemia?
Jessica
You should talk to your doctor as was suggested. As far as the bruise, it it were do to Leukemia I imagine it would be just one spot on your butt more more generalized on the body. Its the chemos that can cause Leukemia. I think the incidence with Adriamycin is somewhat less than 1%. Neulasta doent cause Leukemia. There is some concern aboutr the growth facors stimulating tumour growth but not that much is known and these growth factors are given when chemo is given
