Doctor diagnosed me with IBS because of stomach and back pain. I went back for a second opinion and CT scan showed up enlarged lymph nodes, and Doctor diagnosing me with lymphoma. Always get another opinion!👍

I was diagnosed with lymphoma .my main system was sever pain in my neck,back and legs. I then developed a small lump on my neck. Had a blood test for cancer that came back negative.turns out lymphoma doesn't always show up in these blood tests. Then I was referred to the pain clinic who interviewed me over zoom.They sent me for an MRI that showed the lymph nodes.i was referred to a heamatolagest who had my lump biopsied. Getting diagnosed is not as easy as this video makes it seem. If I hadn't of been in so much pain it might of been years before I could of been diagnosed.

I have ALL the symptoms except for night sweats. 20% body weight drop in four months, fevers, rashes/itching, chest pains, quickly out of breath (also, I could HARDLY breath for 5 consecutive days), pain in my abdomen (especially right under my ribcage, anemia, bruising, constant infections... OH! And not to mention 5 lumps in my neck and face, which I found about 8 weeks ago but could’ve been there for longer. And guess what? My internist doesn’t want to do any testing because my bloodwork was just a little bit off, I’m young (25), It’s probably psychosomatic and the procedures and tests themselves could harm me. (Radiation/biopsies etc) Well... my body is harming me now! 🤯 I don’t know what to do anymore now.

I have no aniema no unexplained weight loss no pain in abdomen no shortness of breath no night sweats no super swollen hard painless hard like rock immovable lymph nodes no easy bruising. I have had a cough for about a month but it always takes me months to kick a cough my nodes swell when I get a cough but cervical lymph nodes are always palpable. My nodes are tender and I only have two but they are getting smaller I’m a hypochondriac doc checked and felt and said it’s fine and normal that’s when I had an ear infection and I had a cold as well I still have the cold but it takes me months to kick one. They aren’t noticeable and almost barely felt. They are normal it’s just cervical nodes can always be palpable. Because they are shotty nodes they aren’t getting bigger not immovable not hard like a. Rock instead they are small soft moveable and not growing but shrinking they are shotty or reactive doc said it’s fine I’m just a hypochondriac. Cause I have no symptoms

I was diagnosed with mantle cell lymphoma stage 4 in 14, I am a Vietnam veteran and mantle cell lymphoma is the number one presumptive disease caused by agent orange! Doctors at VA administered chemo for six months and then had a stem cell transplant! I have been in remission for about five years, living a completely normal wonderful life! Praise God! Question? About 10 years before I was diagnosed I had to have my spleen removed because it had ruptured, never found a reason for my spleen to rupture, no accident no trauma no anything just started feeling full inside went to doctor and that is when they discovered ruptured spleen! Could that ruptured spleen have been caused by agent orange? As far as I know they didn't test for cancer! They were just trying to keep me alive, I did just about die!!

I am 22, I have these 2 or 3 very very small lumps on my right side of the leg, near the groin area. Its here for like 6 days now, at first it feels like a muscle pain from a work out untill i touched it and there's these very very small lumps, Last night I had a very sweaty night to the point I had to change clothes, but I also thought that it could be from me overthinking a lot about it and I did not turned on my electric fan bu I did let the window open for a breeze to come in, and also my bed sheet is a kind of like a not so good textile where it easily gets warm not like the cotton textile.type of bed sheet where it is comfy and a bit cold, so maybe its also a factor to consider, of the 6 days that its here that was the only night i had a sweaty night...now on its 6th day it has gotten smaller in size (I am happy about it) and I no longer feel that muscle pain kind of thing...I wish and I hope and I pray to god that this is not a lymphoma because I am just a poor man, no work, no job no savings. I am from the Philippines. And I don't have the money to go to a doctor for a check up. I hope that my condition now will continue to improve. Pray for me guys, I want to live my life, I still haven't fullfilled my dreams in life...

I lost my father last year after 5 years of fighting Hodgkins Lymphoma. Since then every single palpable little lymph node is automatically health anxiety and uncontrollable fear for me
@LymphomaAction2 жыл бұрын
I was so sorry to learn that you lost your father last year, following his diagnosis of Hodgkin lymphoma., and after 5 years of fighting the condition. I can appreciate that this has likely been a very difficult time. It's very understandable to have concerns about your own health, with all that you have experienced, this would be very natural. Generally speaking, enlarged lymph nodes are quite common, and generally nothing of concern, but if you have persistent nodes, then sensible to get checked out by a doctor, but very commonly, will be linked to an infection, for example. Although family members can be at a slightly higher risk of having lymphoma, this is still very small, and lymphoma is not considered to be hereditary. We send our best wishes to you, take care.

Doc said I was fine and felt said it was normal mine are a moveable soft tender small lymph node but I do have a cold as well so it is explained. If you however have a growing hard like rock round rough immovable and they come when you have nothing going on it’s best to go get checked mine are reactive and are getting smaller the only reason there still here is because I don’t stop painfully touching it and I’m still have a cold even tho it takes me months to kick a cough this has happened since I was really young so that’s why they are still there cause coughs cause then to swell and being a hypochondriac like me and constantly touching them isn’t good it’s not good for them healing and not good for your skin in general. Plus I had an ear infection couple weeks ago took me 2 weeks to get rid of it and they were swollen then even tho however cervical nodes are always palpable. If the small axis is bigger then 15 mm get checked mine aren’t. Dealing with my hypochondriac self is tough but I’m starting to stop or trying to stop inflaming them by touching because doc felt and said it’s normal because there not noticeable there normal
