For Lymphoma Survivors Only! What were your symptoms before being diagnosed. Please share your story..?

I was diagnosed with 3rd stage Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma on February 7, 2003. Most of the disease was between my lungs, so I had a lot of pain in my chest. I had a really hard time breathing, and had started coughing up blood. The lymph nodes in my neck were swollen really bad, which made my throat feel like it was closing.





The reason it go so bad before my diagnosis, was because most doctors don't test for cancer when the patient is only 21 years old. I had 2 surgeries within 2 weeks of each other just before my diagnosis.





I went through 6 rounds of chemo, 23 days of radiation, and ended up having a blood transfusion after my chemo was finished.





I am 3 years healthy, and couldn't be happier. I wish no one would have to go through all the crap I went through, but it happens everyday.

THis is not your typical answer, but a quick story about my Uncle Ben who was 56 at the time of this occurance a few years back as he was diagnosed with Lymphoma. Luckily before he found out that he had this disease, I had him juicing and learning about herbs to take care of his current issues (heartburn, ulcer, aches and pains) with much success. After he found out he had this disease he immediately went on a juice fast and went for 70 straight days! He took a lot of herbs and did some other natural remedies. 4 months later went back to the doctor and got a clean bill of health! He also commented several times that he has never felt more healthier than ever before in his life.

Reply:Hi, I am a lymphoma survivor and the only real symptoms that I had were lumps or swolen areas where lymphnodes are. There are lymphnodes all over the body including the groin area, under the arms in your torso and neck. I had a swolen one in my neck and when we had it removed, it was cancerous. It did not hurt and was not bothersome, it was just there. If you are worried that you might have it, there are blood tests that can give the doctors an idea. If you think you have it, have it checked out as soon as possible. The sooner it's treated, the better you can beat it. I was diagnosed in 1983 and am still going strong with no signs of cancer.
