Headaches

A MyLeukemiaTeam Member asked a question 💭
Salt Lake City, UT

Not sure if it’s stress or a leukemia symptom but I’ve been experiencing a piercing headache for the last six days. Tylenol helps it but it’s even woken me up a few times.
I thought it was initially a cold but I do t have any others symptoms.

Thanks.

I had more frequent headaches while on wstch and wait but nothing as acute as what you are describing. Symptoms like that which last and don’t respond well to OTC analgesics should be reported to your care team as a precautionary measure! Take care and hope these settle down so you can resy better.
