- This question has been asked by a few youtubers that have been watching my videos, but I also get this question a lot from friends. "What were the symptoms you had before you knew you had Lymphoma, and what prompted you to go to the doctor in the first place?" ... Here is my response to this...
Here is my new e-mail just for you youtubers :)

Congrats
I can't personal message you as I'm on my iPod, but I remember watching this video around 7 months ago, and I can't thank you enough for posting this. I watched this just after I was diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma, it helped me so so much and made me realise that I'm not alone. I've come back to this video so many times over these past few months, I can't begin to explain how amazing you are. Ive just turned 17 and I have my last chemo today, I thought my past six months were hard with treatment but I couldn't imagine having radiation aswell. You're so brave it's unbelievable. Thank you so much for posting this video. You've helped me more than you realise! x
@shania murray I hope you are okay now. I'm happy for you and hope cancer never comes back.
Even with no hair you're still gorgeous. I love your eyes
God Bless you and anyone dealing with any sickness...
Hello
I was just diagnosed at 30 years old. The past month has been absolute hell for me. I've been throwing up, fever, chills, night sweats, lost tons of weight, etc.
I love your video, you're brave and very beautiful.
Congratulations for being in remission! That's amazing! Thank you for the comment and trust me, I found a few people after too that I wish I found before on youtube! But it comes in handy now too because we can share our experiences together, and it's still hard to deal with sometimes for me so it's nice to talk to people on here who understand and have the same or similar feelings! Good luck with everything!!!
Thank you for sharing your story. This is so helpful. It is so comforting to know someone else is facing this with courage and dignity. This just makes you even more beautiful that you already are. What a warrior.
Hi!
I’m Danielle and I’m 16. I was going through tests and a biopsy. I watched your video the night before I went in for the results of the biopsy. I had few to no symptoms but I did have a swollen lymph node in my neck. I have recently been diagnosed with stage 3A Hodgkin’s lymphoma. I want to thank you. This video helped me a lot with dealing with my diagnosis
thank you so much for this video! I am also 21 years old and have just started this process of trying to diagnose what is going on in my body. I have a biopsy this coming march to take out one of my lymph nodes to check it for lymphoma, my nodes in my neck are swollen to 3cm. This video helped so much to understand common symptoms. When I read things online they make it seem like you must be showing ALL symptoms to have lymphoma, I actually went to the doctor for severe chest pains a few months back and thought nothing of it, just some really bad acid reflux is what they said and to go home and to this day those pains are common for me. Thank you so much for sharing your story, I feel as though watching this has helped me understand what I might face and be going through. Thank you again!!
Wow!! Thank you for sharing, it sounds like you've been through a lot! Thank goodness you're back to normal though! You're a trooper, that's amazing! Congratulations! Hope for good things for you in the future and hope you're doing well now after all of that!
You are a brave goddess. Thank you for sharing. I love your positive attitude. You set a beautiful example for anyone dealing with a serious medical issue.
I want to say you’re absolutely beautiful! Your video has helped me a lot. I’ve had swollen lymph nodes in my neck for about 5 weeks now. A recent CT scan has shown those lymph nodes plus a gland in my head called the thalamus being affected. I’m being referred to a head & neck specialist for a biopsy. The things I’ve been struggling with have been exhaustion, extreme night sweats & headache. I’m not sure what to think. Thank you for spreading awareness
Hi Danii, i got diagnosed with Hodgkins Lymphoma stage 2 in September 2012, at first i didnt want to watch or hear anything about Hodgkins but i wish i had of after watching your videos it would of helped me not to feel so alone. I have now got 3 more sessions of chemotherapy left and will hopefully be given the all clear after my PET scan. Thank you for creating this CZcams account and spreading awareness, i wish i could of helped other people like you have rather than shutting myself off.
This video is by far one of the most essential and helpful video's on CZcams. You may very well help people to discover what they have, and in a time frame that favors their survival. You are pleasant, well spoken, informative and courageous. These informative videos could help so many people.
You are so Great! You take a bad situation and use it for good. You have decided not to be a victim, empowered yourself and are using your situation to help others. You are one brave person!
You are so pretty and so calm and sweet. I went through some stuff when I was 6 years old. Your upbeat spirit is an inspiration. All God's blessing to beat this illness.
Hi I'm 32 and I we diagnosed with stage4b Hodgkin lymphoma August of 2013 and I had every symptom there is that goes with Hodgkin I didn't listen to my body but now I know better and I encourage others to do the same I'm still going thru my fight but I am here for u you will be in my prayers stay strong well do your best that's all anyone can ask of u be blessed and keep videos coming they are helping people take care
How are u doing now?
+Gamers Destination I'm still fighting but I'm doing good
Keenha Angel how are you now?
Kaitlyn Moon I'm ok lately there's been more bad days than good but I'm still thanking God that I'm here. how are u?
Keenha L Bless you stay strong keep fighting! Keep eating good and stay away from bad food eat a lot of Vitamine C fruits antidoxidants
I am doing great!! It's awesome to be able to look BACK on everything and rather than dread going to the hospital, though I get nervous for appointments.. it's exciting to go back and see all the nurses that remember me and are so interested in hearing how I am and what I'm up to now that I'm done with everything!
Thank you for watching and thanks SO much for your kind words!
Thanks for the video. I was just diagnosed with Stage IV Hodgkin's Lymphoma. I didn't have any symptoms, except the itching which I attested to the dry weather too. I happened to notice a nodule in my collar bone (lymph node) area that grew quite rapidly over a month's period so I brought it up with my doctor. Went through all of the tests and now I'll be starting chemo - less than a month after noticing. Crazy how things work out.
I'm inspired by your positivity and your openness in helping others understand
Bless you sweetie❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ may God be with all the ones who's has cancer. I lost my dad back in 2010 due to cancer
Wow, thank you very much! I didn't expect a comment like that!! That was really sweet of you! I'm so happy I've been able to inform people about Hodgkin's and to inspire people to get into the doctor's to be on the safe side!
I don't want people to excessively worry if they think "my legs are itchy" and jump to conclusions but if you notice something unusual, better to get checked out than to not.
Hi how are you now?
i start treatment in two weeks, this is my second time with Hodgkins. just the thought of having to go through it all again is depressing. Watching your video made me smile! Hope you're doing well!!
Good luck with your results! Keep us informed! Hoping for good results for you!!!
8 years! WOW!!! Well I'm glad you have a positive attitude. After 8 whole years of being in remission and then relapsing, I would think that I would just want to get all the treatments over with again and kick that cancer out of there. Like an unwanted guest, "what are you doing here again, GET OUT"... you've done it once, I believe in you to do it again!
Keep strong and I wish you the best!!!!!!!!!!
You are such an inspiration and your smile honestly makes me want to keep fighting so thank you so much for inspiring me in my fight!
I am a first year medical student, and I have a test on lymphomas next week. I want to thank you for sharing this because it definitely reminds me that everything that I learn will be applied later on as a doctor to help awesome people like you. Continue the good fight!
Are you a dr 👩⚕️ now
Yup. I’m an Emergency Physician now!
My uncle just recently died from non Hodgkin lymphatic cancer, he was a great man and fought it for 2 years. Died too young at 42 R.I.P
I know it has been a long time...how are you doing now?? I pray you are doing better...you seem brave and i admire you helping people by making this video💓🙏You look beautiful inside and out!
Thank you for sharing, and for the kind words. I know it's terrifying waiting and the situation being pretty much completely out of your hands. I wouldnt say to completely ignore the bump but if the doctors are aware, then just be sure to keep an eye on its size and all that. If it doesn't go away from the antibiotics, get a second opinion. Let me know how youre appointment goes this month, if you haven't been already! Keep strong!!
I hope so much that you are doing well! This was a very well done video! Thank you so much for sharing.
Frank
Hey, I love your videos. I just went to the docs yesterday and I got the news that this is a possibility -.- ur videos r defiantly an inspiration. My next step is a biopsy I believe... 😒
Danni, your a beautiful person! Thanks for sharring your knowledge with the world! :)

Best wishes for quick return to good health. I feel for you and this is a brave thing to do- as well as therapeutic for you. God bless..
Waiting on CT results myself...mass on my clavicle seen on an X-ray. I had the same problem with vodka too, and never understood that pain. Anddd dealing with the itching. Which is driving me effing crazy. Anyways, hair or no hair, you're still beautiful, and the fact you take the time to help others says something about you as well. Stay strong.
@deahunt is totally right!! The needle is sometimes to small of a sample to diagnose. This is why my surgeon said she wanted to get in and just go for the surgical biopsy to be sure they had a large enough sample.
WOw, you're so young!! SO brave to have gone through all this crap at such a young age!!!
Awesome video! One of the hard things about a cancer diagnosis is that the symptoms for it are so common. Kinda a bummer how that works out, but best of luck there!
I'm sorry I can't reply to every one of your comments like I normally do, because of this new Google + partnership. Since I can't respond to you all individually, I will choose some of your comments/questions and talk about them in new videos. If you want to chat with me personally, send me an inbox message.
Thanks for understanding! I'll try to get through all of your questions as quickly as I can, and there will be a video up responding, in the next week.
Honestly thank you so much for making videos about lymphoma - I feel like you hear so much about breast cancer but I had honestly never heard of mine before being diagnosed. The scary thing is it can literally happen to anyone - so awareness is crucial. To anyone reading this, it us better to be safe than sorry - if you suspect something is wrong with your health, it's never stupid or crazy to seek medical help x
absolutely beautiful you are xo :)
Were the night sweats every night? I had a fever for two days a few weeks ago and I had night sweats at least 1-3 times a night but not every night. The night sweats went away but I still have a small lump in my neck. I thought maybe it was just swollen from being sick but it's been 3 weeks now and it hasn't gone away so I'm just getting a little worried.
Becca find Dr Robert Morse here on youtube he has helped lots of people get rid of their cancer naturally targeting the lymphatic system. He is an expert in the lymphatic system so even if it's not cancer getting your lymph moving is vital to health anyway :)
Cancer Schmancer im going through the same issue now but i havent been to the doctor's am i going to die
thank you sharing- you are so courageous! i see this was uploaded a long time ago and i hope you're well now. ;-)
I just found out my old, amazing , young history teacher with two kids has this. I'm praying for her , I hope she can get through it
Thank you SO much Chloe! I appreciate that!!!!
I'm a random person watching your video's and I really like our channel. You have a new subbie and I look forward to getting to know you. God bless your heart sweetie for being so open with whats going on in your life.
i had stage 3 when i was 28. the best thing you can do for your aunt is to listen if she wants to talk about her experience, and to offer to help out (if possible) when she feels tired or sick to her stomach which may happen some of the time. it's a very treatable cancer and she is lucky to have family like you :)
Thanks for the comment! I'm doing pretty well now.. almost 2 years cancer free (October!!!! Coming up!) .. I do actually have a lump that I felt in my neck about a month ago.. so going Thursday to see my oncologist about the ultrasound I had for it. I think it's nothing since it hasn't grown at all! So.. positive thinking!
i've been on remission for 8 years now, its hard to think about going though it all over again but im taking it a day at a time. Thank you for encouraging me!!! :)
I got diagnosed with ibs 3 years ago and a cough that they put down to me having asthma and kept saying it wasn't properly controlled. Then 5 months ago I got diagnosed with hodgkins. I know I'm only watching your video now but the reflux really helped me out because hopefully that will stop now too, my cough has stopped and I've read about other people having that too with it and stopping after. And you'e really beautiful without your hair! And I was the youngest person by far too xx
Im happy to see this...I have been diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma twice but im now in remission for the second time
What does remission mean
Deepak Menezes it means that the disease is not present for the time being and may or may not come back
ebony allen I hope you're still in remission.
I have Lymphoma and am undergoing Chemotherapy. Your a beautiful brave girl I pray that God heals you! Thank you for sharing your story
How did you find out? I will pray for you
You look very beautiful even you're sick. I think you'll recover/ overcome this cancer. Wish you health, love & peace
I got diagnosed with stage 2b Hodgkin lymphoma in march and just got my last chemo treatment yesterday. I relate to everything you said in this video! Youre so strong
Charity Wilson how are you now? Are you okay? I have stage 2 too but A
I have three weeks left of chemo. Be glad when that is over and my Port is removed.
The Heartburn, night sweats and the swelling on the left side of my neck and armpit were the main symptoms for me. I still kept piddling around about going to the doc, like an idiot. But we had a snowfall of about a foot. Tried to walk across the yard and I had to stop to catch my breath. I was 26. That was the point where I knew it was time.
Went into the doc, she pretty well guessed it within minutes and scheduled a biopsy immediately. I was stage 4 and my left lung was full of fluid. The GP had recommended an excellent Oncologist who started me on ABVD chemo.
It is quite an experience sitting in that room, hooked to the machine and looking at the people around you. I know what you mean about being the youngest in the room, I only saw one other my age. Most were at least 20 years older.
Have to say I have met some wonderful people during this experience though.
the Doctors and the Nurses really don't get the recognition they deserve.
widgeonslayer how are you doing now? How long did you wait?
i have this cancer.hope your staying strong and are getting better.
Hey its so great to find someone who has or had the same cancer as me i just enteres remission and you dont look ridiculous. Remember you are beatiful no matter what. But your getting through it. Im was 13 when i found out just turned 14 now and I'm better than ever. Take care!!! :)
Amazing news! I love hearing good news like this! Thank you for sharing!!!! All the best for the future!!!!!
I'm good.. it's still tough from time to time, but I got through it and I'm alive so that's all that really matters. Thank you so much for the kind words! The support from everyone means so much to me
Thanks for sharing! I like the attitude, "I'll fight it"! You can do it!!!!! Do you mind me asking you how they went from giving you antibiotics to your diagnosis??
Thank you so much I went to see my doc a few days ago because I had cold and fever that kept coming back. Of couse he performed the regular chk up. He told he to look so he could feel my neck and noticed that lump. Told me that I had a swollen lymph node, Well he has me in anibotics now watching your video, some of the symptoms you mentioned really hit home. I do have to go back in 8 days for a check up again for MRI well see then. Thank you and Good Luck!
You look great with the short hair!! Love love love
Bless you, you are so brave good luck 🍀 in your future x
You are so very brave, keep up the fight!
You're natural beauty, love 'ur attitude! All the best!
Gosh, I wish I had found your feed last year. I just finished with a years worth of chemo and radiation...stage 2b. This would have been so helpful for me, I too googled the crap out of it and had myself terrified. I was diagnosed with Crohn's Disease in 2005 bc as you mentioned the symptoms mimic so many illnesses. Hope you are doing well. Im 2 months officially in remission.
My mom had this and she is ok you will be to
Well thanks for watching and for gaining a more positive attitude! NEVER give up! Your health is most important and I know sometimes we over look what we think are little things. But if you notice something abnormal is ongoing, especially for years at a time, you should get it checked out.
Yes, it's terrifying having something going on inside you that you have no idea how or why you got it. And there's really nothing you can do to control it.. other than treatments.
Thanks for subscribing
Ahh, I'm soo sorry you relapsed with Hodgkin's! This is why I HATE when people say Lymphoma is the "easy" cancer! Keep strong, you got through it once... you can do it again!!!!
May I ask, how long had it been from your remission to them re-diagnosing you??
Also, so glad I could make you smile! That makes me happy!!!!
You are a very wonderful person. Your sharing & advice of the symptoms would help others. I pray for your recovery & may God bless you. I suggest you try meditation. Heard it is good ..
you look Beautiful! I am 41 & I just found out I have stage 1 Lukemia. dont know much about it yet except that this disease killed my dad & my moms mother. be strong & thank you for sharing.
God bless you
Fight it , keep strong, God bless..
Mina Light & Dark Shadow Walker its leukaemia
🙏🙏🙏
Stay strong!❤️
My older brother had Hodgkin’s at the age of thirty stage four. I got him to fight for his life he had a five month old baby girl. If he survived that back in the nineties, so can you now. God Bless you for telling your story for others
Hi everyone I got diagnosed 3 weeks ago and its stage 4 I didn't have any of the symptoms and even doctors couldn't feel lymph nodes. One morning I woke up with a stomachache and diarrhea it was nothing important but the pain sharpened so then I went to a doctor. I've to say that even if you feel a tiny change in your body or metabolism connect with a doctor don't postpone your health.
esra uslupat GREAT advice! I completely agree! Your health is no joke, if you're concerned about anything, don't feel "silly" to ask a doctor to look at it!!! How are you doing esra?
I'm really fine I got my second chemo last friday my hair started falling so fast so I buzzcut them like you did what about you how are you feeling? :)
Actually my doctors didn't do endless tests they just did ultrasound because I had a stomach-ache that felt like I got stabbed plus diarrhea. 'Though I had non of the symptoms'. With the test they found out that I've splenomegaly. My spleen was double size of what it should be. Maybe you should go see a doctor before its too late.
+oc lt I got cured by the way. Thank you so much and I hope you won't get diagnosed with it.
+esra uslupat Bless you then:) You should go around hospitals and tell your story.
Ya, it's better to be safe and get in to see the doctor! Let me know how it went/goes!
Good luck!!!
You are so brave. I have symptoms and a requisition for blood work, but I am frozen with fear. I hope you are well😉
Thank you for posting this. I have Crohns and I had a flare up and had a biopsy that said lymphoma can not be ruled out. For months now I've been really weak and tired. Having severe night sweats waking up with my hair drenched. severe itching and I feel like I'm losing my mind. I was told it could be stress. Heartburn is awful but I do have Crohns but that heartburn usually comes when I ate or drank something that causes heartburn but lately it's really random. I'm just waiting to have other test done but I'm totally freaking out because I usually bounce back after a flare and I have mild crohns but now I'm just pooped all of the time. Where you able to eat? I'm always nauseous and can't keep food down but also a Crohns symptom. I'm just ready to know what is going on.
the night sweats! I wake up drenched and have to change clothes at least once a night. I'm being tested for lymphoma now after I found a mass in my neck and my elbow. hopefully it's nothing huge. I do hope you are well!!! thanks for sharing!
Vitale thanks for your well wishes! i hope you're doing well too! it turned out not to be lymphoma which is good.
Ashley Klug
Wow! I bet you must be really relieved! 😊
Ashley Klug
did they tell you what it ended up being?
same, he told me the white blood cell count was enough and that 100% it would show.
I was worried until i saw that my dad has them too and his had them for like 20 years so i doubt its anything serious.
Aztec Lordu it ended up "being nothing" but "anxiety" even though it's still there and symptoms haven't changed. i got tested for lymes but that came up negative even though the test has two parts and the first usually shows a false negative. they never did the second part. so who knows. maybe when i'm dead someone will figure it out. 🤷🏼♀️
Thank you for the comment!!! How did you appointment go??
I just found out my cousin has this I've been researching on this she just found out but thank you for sharing this I've need to get tested cancer has never runned in my family my aunt had ovrian cancer and is a survivor now but now it's more exposed it worries me and scares me thank you again
You are so strong!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️
I have had swollen lymph glands since June I have 4 of them(that they can see by looking at me) I have my CT scan today. Thank you for the video. I need as much info as I can find. Im very scared. You are very sweet to help others. I wish you all the best.
robinettealine so how did it go?
@cjf7991 Thanks for sharing! Congrats on being 11 years cancer free, that's amazing! I look forward to saying that one day!
Thank you for Sharing your story. When you had the itch on your skin was it a typical skin itch or deep pain itch?
I ask for no response.....PLEASE DON'T PUT YOURSELF DOWN..YOURE SO PRETTY....yeah, short hair and all..........believe in yourself....you're just fine.
PS...this is very educational!.....we're with you!
You have such a great attitude. You’re really beautiful.
I’m pretty sure I have lymphoma. My neck is severely swollen and painful. I sweat at night and my fever has been up and down for a week. I have a cough as well.
Getting a CAT scan tomorrow. Scared
I too have symptoms and am in the process of tests. So scary and hate not knowing! I have blood tests tomorrow.
@coneill112011 Thank you so much for the comment, keep strong.. and I hope the CT is clear for you!!!! If you or ANYONE have any questions, that's what I'm here for... keep em coming!
a false negative on the needle biopsy is really common. from a fellow survivor, good luck to you! continue connecting with others :)
You are beautiful. I'm praying that you get better
Thank you for sharing. Have you been to the doctor at all. It may just be a coincidence, you never know with such broad symptoms like itchyness, etc. but because it runs in your family, it doesn't hurt to check it out just in case! Better to be safe. Let me know how it works out!
Yes, symptoms can be confusing because they could go unnoticed or you could have them, but they don't relate to any sort of illness. I would just say, be aware! Don't feel silly if you are concerned and want to talk to a doctor. Better to be safe than sorry!!
Thanks for the comment!
thank you for posting this video my stomach hurts in the same place an d doctors still cant find out whats wrong ...for the past 2 years im am very tired now and wanting to give up but i cant if people like you are staying strong ...id be a dissapoinment... lol u give me hope by saying that its very scary having something and not knowing whats gioing on your right it is all scary having problems you cant see thank you daniiv79 Love a girl from chicago
such a helpful video. thank you for sharing your story.....
About the reflux thing, did they offically diagnose you as having it? I knew I had it for a long time.. probably since I was in grade 7 or 8, but then after treatments I went in for a scope to see if my side pain was gastro-related (which it isn't) and they found esophagitis which I guess is caused by the reflux. So I now take zantac every day to help.. I still get reflux every day though.
Thank you so much for the comment, that was very sweet of you to say!
Hope all is well with you!
i'm in my 4th out of 6 chemo session. this too shall pass, wishing you all the best...!
Wish you luck in your fight 🤗
I started my chemotherapy treatment soon after diagnosis and like you, I was told it was a common cancer from our age group but I was the only one in my therapy from this age group. When the chemotherapy begins, I found my symptoms from the disease went immediately, only to be replaced with the side effects of chemo. Anyway, I had my last treatment on 31st October 2006 and have remained in remission since. I know have yearly check ups( first every 3 months, then 6months, but now every year)
fellow survivor here..good job on the video. hope you are doing well!
the reason I am watching this video is because one of my friends has been diagnosed with hodgkins lymphoma, and he is in the process of kemopherapy, and the doctors said chances are he isn't going to survive for eyar 9, cureently we are in year 8
Im 27... I have had a lump in my neck for 6 months they thought it was a thyroid problem, did labs and ultra sounds when I first found it and they said it wasn't thyroid and my labs were normal so i ignored it, now six months later I drank 1 beer at dinner (haven't drank in about 8 months) and my neck started to hurt now about a month later my neck is very swollen at the bottom. I have been tired and my temp has been very low at 96. Blood tests were terrible, high potasium, high calcium, acidosis, and low viatamin D. Ran the test two more times and the last blood tests came back completely normal, temp is normal now too but the lump is getting bigger and I have grown a chest lump that I Xrayed and they said it's a swollen rib bone in my chest. Three weeks out from my ENT specialist visit. Tomorrow I'm getting a cat scan I pray I finally get answers.
Did they ever find anything?
Had similar symptoms...fast for 7 day nothing but water.. eased back into eating with green shakes for days 8,9 beef broth w/veg..day 10 eating healthy now keto daily glove of garlic with the daily green shake (spinach2cups and 1 glove of garlic)really cleared my lungs ..stay away from sugar and alcohol...so much better... also take 3000iu vitamin d3 and iodine sea kelp.hope this helps...
Hoping you're doing great! God bless you! :-*
I was wondering how this young lady is doing. I hope she is alive and well ❤️
