I took my daughter to the doctor cause she was very pale with black rings around her eyes. She looked so sick, but I never thought for a moment she had leukaemia. They did a blood test and a bone marrow biopsy and found she had cancer.
I guess the hospital did a blood test to see why you passed out, you cant tell from looking at someone they have leukaemia.

The initial diagnosis of leukemia usually will be made through evaluation of the blood work. The blood work may have been ordered because of symptoms you reported. Perhaps results that indicate leukemia might have appeared in a blood test panel taken for another purpose. Diagnosis will be based on blood test results, the patients description of symptoms, pathology reports, and the doctor's findings after physical examinations.
A good book is Adult Leukemia A Comprehensive Guide for patients and families by Barbara Lackritz.
