It's completely understandable to feel worried when new or returning symptoms appear. Stomach cramps and constipation can have many causes, but it's always smart to take them seriously, especially with a lymphoma history.

Hi, I went thru the whole thing you are going through. I was told to take a good probiotic. It does help with the cramping a little. The old aches and pains, joints hurting, not feeling like eating at all. Eat your veggies. No soda pops, but I was told good dark chocolate really helps..
The advice from AI is right. Call your oncologist to let them know. However. I want to reassure you that every sickness and ache and pain you get does NOT mean your cancer is returning. I totally understand your worrries because once we have cancer our minds immediately go to the worst scenario. Try to relax and please let us know what your oncologist tells you.
Hey there! I get blood draws every three months which helps me understand where my Lymphoma is at. I am able to read the blood draws so that I know what is going on.
It doesn't heart to contact your med team through OneChart and tell them what is going on.
Hang in there -Dave
I still get nervous about new aches & pains but a friend told me, "Mary, if you get a hangnail, you will think it's cancer." Makes me laugh.
