Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML): Symptoms
What are the symptoms of acute myeloid leukemia (AML)?

Bruising
-
Fever and recurring infections
-
Feeling weak
-
Feeling tired (fatigue)
-
Shortness of breath

When to see your healthcare provider
Many of these symptoms can be caused by other health problems. In fact, many of them are more likely to be caused by something else. But it is important to see your healthcare provider if you have these symptoms. Only a healthcare provider can tell if you have AML, another type of cancer, or another condition.
