Featured Article An Overview of Lymphoma Symptoms The Lymphatic SystemLymphoma symptoms can range from non-existent to severe. In extreme cases, for instance, where the disease affects the central nervous system, the patient may suffer from confusion and/or seizures and acute neurological dysfunction. Most patients, however, experience no pain or discomfort, especially in the early stages. Unfortunately, many symptoms of the condition are non-specific and the disease is often mistaken for other common illnesses, such as the common cold, flu or respiratory infections. Of course, most people reporting these non-specific symptoms do not have lymphoma, but anyone who experiences persistent symptoms should consult a physician to eliminate the possibility of lymphoma. continued			Blogs
