First off...please understand I apologize for posting any silly questions on here about symptoms when most of you have been diagnosed or have loved ones who have...I hope you and your loved ones can pull through this and put up the best fight you can.

About a year ago I started having serious migraines(several x's a week)...with classic aura. I was cat scanned and blood tested. The diagnoses by neuro was i developed migraines (for no reason). Along with the migraines I became dizzy, foggy, unbalanced and tired. I have a general feeling of malaise but nothing specific. Was sent to ENT...no diagnoses. A few weeks ago, for no reason, just below my eye developed a quarter size bleed under the skin, it was a round purple bleed that developed into a big bruise. (try explaining that one!) and I have noticed very tiny red/purple dots kinda peppered on my upper arms, top of thighs and stomach...I mean very tiny and kinda sprinkled about. They are other places also but so small i really have to search to find them. I am tired but i have a 1 year old and 2 year old...so how could one now? I do get small bruises all over legs and arms unsure of where they came from. I have not lost any weight. I am reluctant to see my doc about the spots because she is kinda awkward and I went through a bit of anxiety trying to get anything done about my headaches and dizziness...she just didn't see the seriousness of it and made me feel small i guess for asking/pushing (had to see her 3 times before referal to neuro)... I really don't want to deal with that again, if no need.

So I am just looking for any thoughts regarding what i have told you, especially the spots. I understand that bleeding into the skin to be a symptom of leukemia (as well as other conditions) and was just looking for any insight.

Thanks again for reading and you are all in my prayers.
