Unknown sickness
Hello everyone. I've been feeling really sick for six days straight now. It started Saturday, I felt a cold breeze at 5am, so I thought if I'll just turn off the fan. When I woke up around 7am, I had a fever. It lasted for two days with my temp. rising up to 40c and recurring intense chest pains. Then on Monday, my temp was back to 37c, I went on and take exams for school even though I felt this ff:
Severe headache,Nausea,Teary eyes,Lack of appetite,Feel cold,Easily tired,Cold sweats
The next day up to now (Thursday), my temp hasn't even reached 37c and went as low as 35.6c. I'm feeling nauseated and a constant headache with varying levels of pain. I can't even eat because when I try, I just want to puke them out.
I need help please.

So, you go to the doctor or clinic and get examined.? Should have went after the third day.
Did not say age or what type of school. If high school or middle school, tell your parents and go to the doctor. If university, most have a clinic, go there.

Oh sorry. Just had a CBC checked. I have low neutrophils and high lymphocytes. And high red blood cells.
I'm already 22. By school, I meant aviation training center.

I'm sorry to be harsh, but it is very irritating to read someone's medical symptoms and THEN have them say 'Oh sorry, just had a CBC.' Obviously if you had blood work (and those high and low levels are not indicative of any single disease), then you are under medical care. Please continue to pursue this with the doctor who ordered the test. If you feel that he or she isn't being getting anywhere, then come back. And include details!
An aviator having chest pains should not be going up in planes, of course. The way you describe the last week, I would be seriously demanding some attention from the medical facility associated with your school, and going elsewhere if they aren't addressing these symptoms.

I just had the cbc done because the doctor thinks there's nothing wrong with me. He put me on pain relievers which aren't any help at all. I'm not yet flying for a while, finishing written exams on ground. I asked my dad for help because we have no clue as to what kind of doctor we should be going to.

Due to the circumstances I am in right now, I can't immediately go back to the doctor as of the moment. So I'm trying to seek help online. And I did search for possible symptoms, which led me to leukemia. And I don't want to believe I have that and I'm looking for other possible explanation as to what I've been undergoing. So forgive me if I've been 'irritating', I was never really been sick like this before, and I'm getting paranoid with what is wrong with me.

Most people who try to self diagnose... get it wrong.
Even Doctors with medical training go to other doctors... because they would lack the necessary objectivity to diagnose themselves.

'Just had' the CBC done in the 3 1/2 hours since you posted and then mentioned it? Hard to believe. And how did you get it done, and did the doctor see it? Do you see how vague you are, and how difficult it is to be helpful? You have a hard time being a good explainer.
I'm sympathetic to anyone who can't get a diagnosis, having been there myself. But you should have mentioned the CBC and it's details, not all the times your temp fluctuated. You don't even say how far out of normal they are!
There are just too many conditions that could be causing your blood counts to be the way they are.

Unfortunately, there is no choice other than go to the doctor...and I would probably pick a different one than the one you have seen since he thinks there is nothing wrong.
We can't diagnose you online and trying to figure it out yourself is not a good idea either. No excuses, see another doctor.
Good luck.
