    Caitlin,
    my bro-in-law just recently came up with leukemia.
    He said his symptoms were headaches, bruising and tired.
    Please go to a doctor and have your blood worked up.

    The four main types of leukemia are:

    Acute lymphoblastic leukemia, or ALL. ALL is the most common leukemia in children. Adults can also get it.
    Acute myelogenous leukemia, or AML. AML affects both children and adults.
    Chronic lymphocytic leukemia, or CLL. CLL is the most common leukemia in adults, mostly those who are older than 55. Children almost never get it.
    Chronic myelogenous leukemia, or CML. CML occurs mostly in adults.
    What causes leukemia?
    Experts don’t know what causes leukemia. But some things are known to increase the risk of some kinds of leukemia. These things are called risk factors. You are more likely to get leukemia if you:

    Were exposed to large amounts of radiation.
    Were exposed to certain chemicals at work, such as benzene.
    Had some types of chemotherapy to treat another cancer.
    Have Down syndrome or some other genetic problems.
    Smoke.
    But most people who have these risk factors don’t get leukemia. And most people who get leukemia do not have any known risk factors.

    What are the symptoms?
    Symptoms may depend on what type of leukemia you have, but common symptoms include:

    Fever and night sweats.
    Headaches.
    Bruising or bleeding easily.
    Bone or joint pain.
    A swollen or painful belly from an enlarged spleen.
    Swollen lymph nodes in the armpit, neck, or groin.
    Getting a lot of infections.
    Feeling very tired or weak.
    Losing weight and not feeling hungry.
