Are you experiencing neuro-urinary and bowel issues during treatment for sacrum lymphoma?
Yes, other members have dealt with similar challenges. When lymphoma affects the abdomen or lower body, it can cause complications with urinary and digestive systems.
Lymphoma tumors in the abdomen can put pressure on the urinary tract and digestive system, leading to blockages or functional issues. A MyLymphomaTeam member shared that their follicular lymphoma started in the lower abdomen and spread to lymph nodes, causing similar concerns.
Additionally, treatment side effects can contribute to these problems:
* Peripheral neuropathy (nerve damage causing numbness or tingling)
* Constipation or diarrhea
* Digestive system changes
These symptoms can result from both the lymphoma itself and treatments like chemotherapy or radiation. It's important to discuss these issues with your healthcare team, as they may be able to adjust your treatment plan or provide medications to help manage these side effects.
You're not alone in dealing with these challenging symptoms during treatment.
