How can you tell if you have lymphatic cancer?

Symptoms of Lymphoma Cancer often do not lead directly to the underlying diagnosis and many symptoms can be misleading. Lymphoma symptoms can be variable because there are so are many different types of lymphoma. The lymphoma symptoms will vary depending on the subtype of lymphoma, stage, and age of the patient. The "classic" B symptoms include fever, night sweats, and weight loss. Not everyone will have these symptoms, even in the setting of very aggressive disease. Other lymphoma symptoms can be general in nature such as generalized fatigue. More specific lymphoma symptoms depend on what areas of the body are involved. Humans have lymph nodes throughout the body and any of these can become involved. Since the cells involved in lymphoma "lymphocytes" are designed to go throughout the body, the abnormal cancerous cells may show up anywhere. People may get abdominal pain because of swelling of the spleen (splenomegaly), skin rashes, headaches, confusion, or weakness of an arm or leg. Other lymphoma symptoms may include bowel obstruction, or shortness of breath. People may have swelling of an arm or leg. If the bone marrow is involved, then lymphoma symptoms related to changes in blood counts may occur. These symptoms occur because of anemia, thrombocytopenia, or leukopenia.

Lymphona Warning Signs?

Lymphoma is a disease that tends to sneak up on people. Its early warning signs are very subtle and may not be recognized for a while. The most common symptom of lymphoma is enlarged lymph nodes. These will appear most often as bumps in the armpits, groin or neck. They can also appear in the chest, abdomen and on the skin. These swollen lymph nodes are usually slightly painful and tender. However, sometimes the bumps can be firm but not painful. Many people notice these bumps while taking a bath or changing clothes. Unexplained weight loss is another symptom of lymphoma. Lymphoma can cause a significant weight loss of up to fifteen pound in a couple of month's time. In addition to the unexplained weight loss, lymphoma patients may also experience loss of appetite, which will cause further weight loss. Vomiting, nausea and abdominal discomfort may also be present. A fever that does not accompany a respiratory or urinary tract infection could signal lymphoma. Fever that accompanies lymphoma will keep occurring even though there is no infection causing the fever. In addition to fever, night sweats are another symptom of lymphoma. One unique symptom of lymphoma is itching all over the body. This itching is caused by chemicals that are released from the lymphoma cells. Some people have a skin rash that accompanies lymphoma. Extreme tiredness and lack of energy can also indicate lymphoma. When lymphoma is located in the neck or chest, it can cause swelling of the neck and face and difficulty breathing. It can also cause coughing. When the lymphoma is near the thymus, it can cause chest pain. If lymphoma has caused swelling of the spleen, there may be abdominal pain present. Lymphoma can cause back pain if the swollen lymph node is putting pressure on the nerves of the lower back. However, back pain can have may other causes that have no relation to lymphoma. Many of the symptoms of lymphoma can be caused by other minor, easily treatable diseases. Therefore it's important to always consult your physician if you see a pattern of symptoms emerging that suggest that they could be caused by lymphoma.
