I had non-Hodgins lymphoma in 2009 & I didn't know that I had it. It was stage 3 & I had 8 chemos and have been cancer free since then. I'm 75 now & very healthy. 😀

I was diagnosed with HL 30 years ago at age 22. I was tired, achy, had a low-grade fever, and lost some weight. But my most prevalent symptom was the severe ITCHING! There was no rash, I just dug holes in my skin because I itched so badly. And I couple of different doctors thought I had scabies! Long story short, they did eventually figure out what I had was far more serious, so I had a lymph node biopsy, and sure enough, it was cancer. I had 9 months of chemo and 6 weeks of radiation and I’ve been cancer free for 29 years!

Our bodies tell us and then our Doctors tell us it’s nothing and send us on our way. I have been to many Doctors all the time as a survivor of Cancer no one touches the patient anymore. It’s very rare. Our system is broken.

I was just diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma stage 4 I'm 18 years old and I should have never got this my doctor is helping me survive it

[patriciabarnes]

I've been battling Non Hodgkin's Lymphoma for 15 years. I've had chemo and radiation. And have been going in for immune build up meds.

I lost my mother to this cancer. My advise to anyone having some sort of lump on your neck or any other place where lymph nodes are, experiencing very itchy skin all over the body, having trouble eating and pooping, don't ever bother to go to any nearby clinics cause they would most probably dismiss it with something minor not cancerous and ask you to wait to see if the lump would go away. If it is actually a cancer, you really don't want to wait just go directly to the specialists at any private hospital (avoid public hospital if possible) that could really tell what it really is in significantly shorter time and buy you more time to fight the cancer before it is too late. Chemo will just worsen the problem when it is too late.

My sister was diagnosed with Stage 3 lymphoma in 2006. She underwent chemo and also had stem cell therapy, nothing worked! Illness progressed for 31/2 years to all her body and she finally passed away in 2009. It’s a dreadful illness and hard to watch a loved one deteriorate from it.

Cold sweats, hot shivers, no get up n go, no energy to spare or stamina

Lack of sleep, itchy skin, can be overwhelming, you put on a brave face for the family

Stomach bloated and flatulence, without any influence, you fart and you burp uncontrollably

Always sleepy and tired, in a world of your own, thinking how to keep hold of your sanity

It's so surreal, these things that you feel, and friends will show their true colours

The ones that you love, will be there for your good, and treat you like they are your mothers

Loved ones are worried, is this the end, of the one they love so dearly

The fight is on, the battle begins, the future no longer viewed clearly

It's just the start, it will take time, test your strength and mental ability

At times you may need, to be alone and daydream, finding solace in your own tranquility

Your physical strength will pull you through, although it will be diminished

Stay mentally strong, for however long, it takes until it's finished

The treatment is hard, makes you feel bad, but it's eatng away at the issue

Immune system suffers, take care where you go, avoid anyone with a sniffle and tissue

And in the end you'll find, your own peace of mind, as your progress is shared periodically

The therapy is working, destroying not shirking, eating the problem methodically

Wow I have so many of these. I have lymph nodes showing up as cancer .I am seeing the sergeon Wednesday to schedule a biopsy. I found a lump in my groin . Got ultrasound..then CT scan with contrast. Now I need biopsy 🤦🏻‍♀️ wish me luck 🙏

I watched this vid with interest. I had lymphoma. I did not have night sweats or weight loss. In fact did not have any of these " warning signs " except fatigue. Night sweats are a common symptom of an infection, could be anything. My symptom was pain. Felt like being crushed from the inside out. Tumor in the bone of the spine, hit the spinal chord causing paralysis from rib cage to big toe. I guess was lucky that the tumor pressed upon the spinal chord before spreading. Lymphoma responds well with radiation treatment.

Itching!!! This is a huge symptom I had

If your doctor isnt willing to pursue a medical issue, tell them that you want it written in your file that they refused to do anything about it. If they wont do it, send them a message on the portal demanding that they do. They know that is setting them up for malpractice if something is wrong and will likely help. If not, find someone else and via the portal, make sure they know there is a problem. Then call a lawyer if something serious is wrong and likely worsened because they wouldnt help.
