I'm not giving up! For weeks now I have been searching the net for help with the symptoms I'm having and sooner or later I know someone will know what I'm talking about. I'm not special enough to be the only one out there that has felt like this!
The basic problem is the symptoms of low body temperature and cold clammy sweats when I try to do just about any activity hard or not. My temperature runs from 94.8 to 96.7 most of the time. Never gets to what they say is the normal range of 98.6. I get tired easier and I seem to be sleeping more lately. I'm in my mid 50s and retired. Because of these problems I am starting to get depressed.
So far what I have had done is a couple of blood panels done and three CBC tests done because my doctor thought I had an infection. I have been treated with four (4) different antibiotics. First time did nothing. Blood test #1 showed high white count. More antibiotics. Blood test #2 CBC was even higher. More antibiotics and yet another test and the white blood cells were still high. You can see where I'm going here. If it's an infection all those antibiotics should have taken care of it. I'm still suffering.
I don't have a clue if this is Hypothyroidism problem or not but I've got nothing to lose. If any of you out there know these symptoms please get back to me. [email hidden]

Agreed. Your doctor should be doing a workup to rule out leukemia.

Are the symptoms I'm having close to those of leukemia? Know any place where I can go read about it? Any info will help.

There are lots of cancer-related web sites out there. However, I would caution you not to jump to any conclusions. See your doctor, and get the workup. Good luck.
