Scared to death that I might have Leukemia

I was scratching my leg in the shower the other day... I got out of the shower just this morning and i see a rash. I look a little closer and I realize it is a blood bruise rash. I hop on google and type in "blood bruise from scratching". Here I learn it is a major symptom of leukemia as i do more research on what leukemia is. 

For the past couple months I have felt off. A little more tired. A little more easily exaughsted... I'm scared to death. (I am going to get a blood test later today). Please wish me luck.
