3. Sudden Weight Loss
One common sign of lymphoma, in fact any type of cancer, is sudden weight loss. A sudden increase or decrease in weight can be a signal to consult a physician. Dramatic weight loss occurs when someone loses significant weight without the help of exercise, physical activities, change in diet, or slimming pills.
Losing weight may not be a single symptom to rule out lymphoma. However, it may signify that cancer cells in the body is rapidly multiplying and burning a lot of energy. When lymphomas are severe, cancer cells tend to grow quicker than usual, and accelerated weight reduction is prominent. If you notice an abnormally fast drop on your weight, consult a doctor for probable lymphoma.
