Hello Hades,

I agree, you've got to get another opinion. The relationship is well documented. Don't delay getting your questions answered to your satisfaction. Good luck...

Hi hades10109,

There is a strong association between chronic HepC and lymphoma. If you have swollen lymph nodes, INSIST that your doctors investigate them. If they won't, change your doctors. Cheers.

I have Hepatitis C, but am worried that I have Lymphoma.

I have a family history of cancer and my father had Lymphoma about 10 years ago.

My symptoms are :

 

Pelvic pain

Abdominal pain/pain in my sides

Lower/middle back pain

Swollen lymph nodes in neck

Lumps in my lower back

Hard lump in groin area

Random sharp pain in legs/arms/hands/feet (Not really sure how to describe it)

Tingling sensation in arms/legs

Headaches

Loss of appetite

Fatigue

Change in bowel movements ( Sometimes there is blood, and a lot of mucus in my stool)

Itching and sometimes have a rash 

 

I really don't feel good at all and my doctors are saying it's from the Hepatitis and not doing any other tests for cancer and I am very worried about it.

What are your opinions? Do you think this is all from the Hepatitis C?
