I looked at the results of my blood work and 3 of my levels, my hemoglobin, my red blood count, and my hematocrit are all high. I looked this up, yeah I know. Not smart. But it says when all 3 are high it can indicate a specfic type of blood cancer.

I'm just worried with the fatigue and the nausea and the headaches and other muscle aches that I do have cancer. If I just had the symptoms I'd brush it off as anxiety. But having the symptoms and those 3 specfic blood levels being high is really kinda scaring me.

I know its happening as a result of my transtion and the hormones I am taking. I had to initial a paper in 2020 before I started the hormones saying I was aware of the risk of possible cancer.

I don't know. I mean. I do want my mom to outlive me. I feel like she would do better without me vs the other way around. but blood cancer at age 29 sounds super scary.
