Can you be riddled with cancer and not know?

Shortness of Breath Many things can cause shortness of breath. It could mean something as simple as needing to get more exercise. If you notice you’re getting out of breath with normal activities or walking stairs, however, that’s abnormal and should be evaluated. Bleeding Doctors consider certain types of bleeding more indicative of cancer than others. While they could be caused by other conditions, these bleeding types should be evaluated by a doctor: Coughing up blood, called hemoptysis

Blood in stool, which can look dark or tarry

Abnormal vaginal bleeding

Blood in the urine (hematuria)

Bloody nipple discharge

Lumps and Masses Sometimes, lumps can be completely normal. For example, a cold can cause your lymph nodes to enlarge. This is temporary and is your body’s way of fighting off the cold. Difficulty Swallowing or Feeling Full Does food get stuck in your throat? Do you have difficulty swallowing? This is called dysphagia. It may or may not be a sign of cancer. If it gets worse over time, you should call your doctor. Maybe you notice a “full” feeling even when you’re hardly eating. That also warrants a visit to your doctor.
