6. Sudden weight loss
We all know that weight fluctuates, depending on your activity levels, the foods you eat, and your overall lifestyle. However, if you lose plenty of pounds without even trying, or if you’ve noticed that you have no appetite, it might be a sign of cancer.
In conformity with the American Cancer Society, sudden weight loss is usually the first eye-catching symptom of cancers of the stomach, pancreas, lung, and esophagus. There are also other types of cancers, such as ovarian cancer, that are more prone to trigger weight loss when a tumor is big enough to press on the stomach.
…If you’ve noticed that you’re a lot slimmer and you didn’t even try to do something to shed off pounds, you should talk to your doctor as soon as possible!

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.
Good luck!
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
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.
