I recently watched the show Scrubs and one guy had Leukemia. He had a hole in his hand that would not stop bleeding.
This made me think of my own body because I recently had two incidences where my cuts would not stop bleeding for a long period of time. I have had one cut when I fell 4 months ago and has not healed yet and is still looking crusty (sorry to disgust anyone).
I have also been feeling very weak and tired which I thought was normal because I am lazy and am always tired.
I have also had a cold that has been on going for 2 or 3 months.

Are these symptoms?
Should I see a doctor to get a blood test?

Hi

I would definatly advise for you to see a Dr, As we can only advise on here, not diagnose. There could be many reasons why a wound doesn't heal, also your other symptoms.

Also remember that Scrubs is ment to me a Comedy sitcom. Not the best thing to base any form of illnees on.

See a DR and let us know how you go.

i know it was stupid to refer to scrubs as a "doctor" but it got me thinking.
