Make it compulsory for patients to have a full blood count every 6-12 months

Petition Details

My 2 year old was poorly despite going to the doctors and seeing 3 different ones it was all dismissed as nothing and even though I asked for a blood test for her we were refused. I took her to A+E and the morning after she was diagnosed with luekemia on 06-04-16.

Additional Information

My daughter at 2 years old was poorly for a few weeks with aches and pains, unexplained bruising, weight loss, constant fatigue and tiredness and a swollen face. GPS were of no help and we were dismissed each time. It took my health visitor to tell the gp there was something wrong for them to tell her to tell me to go to A+E the next day she was diagnosed with T-ALL and the swelling in her face was due to a tumour in her chest pressing on her airways she couldn't breathe properly + needed oxygen
