The common symptoms of acute myeloid leukemia in the late stage include worsening of anemia, worsening of infection and worsening of bleeding. As the patient’s leukemia cells spread throughout the body, the damage to human tissues is more serious, and the clinical symptoms will be more obvious.
1. Anemia aggravation: the anemia becomes more serious, the patient’s pallor, fatigue and dizziness become more serious, the body is unusually weak, and some patients can’t even get out of bed to walk, and need to be assisted in walking.
2. Infection aggravation: the infection is more serious, usually manifested as persistent high fever, the application of antipyretic medicine is not effective, the body temperature can be temporarily reduced, but will rise rapidly. Infections are generally categorized into pulmonary infections, gastrointestinal infections, perianal infections and oral infections.
3. Exacerbation of bleeding: Bleeding is more serious, characterized by large bleeding spots and petechiae on the skin and mucous membranes, and in severe cases, there will be internal bleeding, vomiting blood and black stools.
Some AML patients are accompanied by other symptoms such as fatigue and extreme lethargy in the late stage. However, if the patient develops the above symptoms, he/she should go to the hospital immediately for effective treatment.
