A member asked:
Can leukemia cause blood clots? i had two blood clots and it shows i had low wbc?

See below: Leukemia is not a usual cause for clots. Low WBC argues against you having leukemia. You obviously are under the care of a doctor to be on anticoagulants. You need to practice birth control without using the pill.

Provide us reports: If you can send us the results of your complete blood count(CBC), we can tell you if there is any indication of Leukemia or not.. Blood clots can develop secondary to any Cancer or may have nothing to do with Cancer(Most patients who develop blood clots do not have Cancer as the cause).
