What Leads To Shortness Of Breath While Suffering From Leukemia?
When I am in church with no windows open after a while I get light head and have to go out side to get fresh air. BUT no one else has the problem breathing and they say I am imaging the problem. I have CML Leukemia under control. 69Yrs old. Should I cause conflict by insisting on better ventilation or just leave.

Hi,
Leukemia per say won't cause such problem, but you have to check your hemoglobin levels along with CBC to have an clear cut picture, along with that you have to get a cardiology evaluation, please specify your age.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
