Leukemia site?

[edit]

.... you know a couple of days ago we were fake wrestling and I hit my right upper arm real hard and the next day I started noticing some incredible weakness and aches in the upper right arm and really prevents me from doing simple stuff I usually do every day and I looked up in the internet about leukimia because I knew it had something to do with bone marrows which I was pretty much guessing along of what might be causing the problem and when I saw that diagram and saw that it was in the exact spot where my weakness is on my right arm I just find it interesting that I coincidently found a diagram which describes where the exact spot on the exact arm and this is a symptom of leukimia but it was just wrestling is it theoretically possible I might have leukimia I know it might be a stupid question but is it?

The image is only a demonstration that there is bone marrow for example in that part, but that site (at the diaphysis of the right humerus) is just arbitrarily chosen and is not a site associated with higher incidence of leukemia (as far as I know). I advice you to turn to your doctor for individual medical service. Mikael Häggström (talk) 17:10, 1 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
