2. Difficulty swallowing 

If you have the feeling that the food you eat is not going where it’s supposed to, but it’s actually getting stuck in your throat, or if you have issues swallowing and it lasts more than 2 weeks, it might be a sign of lung, throat, or stomach cancer.

There is an actual medical term for this issue, “dysphagia” and it usually affects people who are diagnosed with neck and head cancers. A side effect of the treatment is actually blocking or narrowing the food passage, which leads to what is known as having trouble swallowing.

…Did you know about this?

  1. Three years ago I was diagnosed with stomach cancer, until the moment I could no longer swallow anything without it coming right back up there were no symptoms or signs that I had cancer. I guess my point is that cancer can be pretty sneaky if it wants to be. I underwent chemo and radiation, have been in remission for two years.

  2. I was 24. I was required to take a pap smear to get birth control pills. Once it came up class 3. They advised me to see a Dr. He too did a test and advised me to take a dnc and conization if it came up Cancer. When I went in the hospital it came back positive for Cancer. Afterwards he suggested pap smears for 10 years. He also advised me to have another child before I couldn’t have one. I got pregnant after 5 years my pap smears have been clear. I caught early, which didn’t lead to a hysterectomy

  3. Cancer is hard to find and sneaks up on a person. I have lung cancer, stage 1 found early and had radiation. I am not a smoker, not around smoking, and luckily it was found by chance. I also had breast cancer 30 years ago which was also found early. I had extensive surgery for that and so far, so good.
