Leukemia pathophysiology | Hematologic System Diseases | NCLEX-RN | Khan Academy

Sometimes an immature blast cell have two gene mutations which prevent it from maturing into a specialized blood cell and cause it to multiply out of control. These immature blast cells crowd the bone marrow and impair the ability of the bones to make healthy blood cells. This leads to a decrease in platelets, red blood cells (RBCs) and white blood cells (WBCs). Created by Nauroz Syed.

I only watched this because I've got to create pathophysiology charts of 45 diseases but after I learned how scary and deadly this disease really is, I came to a halt on my project and started contemplating about how grateful I should be for how my man, hematopoeitic stem cell boi, does not have any mutations atm.

I have AML in remission! But I am studying this in case of relapse and Bone Marrow Transplant. I was told so much of this while I was ill and going through chemo but it all sounded like a foreign language until now! Your explanations are so easy for me to understand and I appreciate knowing what was going on in my body now! Thank you!

[@RonGJX]

Excellent series of presentations. Not only do you have real teaching talent, but I can tell you love your work and are enthusiastic about the topics. I could sit and listen to your lectures frequently, just for the joy of knowledge.

Hi, I have a question, even if I'm awake or I don't always get enough sleep, can I have leukemia?

[@jagrajsingh6494]

One of my friend was diagnosed with AML during his routine blood examination as he was having fever from last 10 days. He was taken to the hospital, where CBC was done and he was having marked Thrombocytopenia. Doctors advised him to undergo bone marrow test as they were suspecting it could be due to some serious problem. The CBC report came and it was Blood cancer. The doctors started giving chemotherapy but he did not want to go for it. One day he was surfing for the internet and got to know about Planet Ayurveda. He opened the site, online ordered "Crab care pack". Currently he is better and is now taking any chemotherapy.

Can you have low RBC High WBC High Monocutes absolute, high Globulin, low MPV, low CO2 & develop heart issues? I'm a former Elite gymnast so I've never had low CO2 or high pCO2 or bradycardia. My B12 is not low. I have all the symptoms of this but low WBC not high. I have a secondary infection as well. My bones hurt, I cracked my foot bone. They admitted me to the hospital but I left AMA not knowing I was admitted or what was wrong, I'm going back but I won't get the same people & I don't think they'll be thorough & send me home. It will take forever to go to the Dr & they wanted a MRI last time which the Dr doesn't have. I'm so sick of being sick, 2 years now please help! I'm 52 with severe neuropathy from a medical mistake. ♥️♥️

[@karensingh2020]

can anyone get leukemia?

[@oguzkagansahin6667]

You are explaining the topic overly simplifed and it makes watching the video very hard even at x2 speed
