What does Lymphoma do to the small intestine?


What are the symptoms to Lymphoma. WHat is the treatment for lymphoma? is lymphoma fatal to a human?

Some symptoms of lymphomas are night sweats, fever, itching and swollen lymph nodes. The type of lymphoma impacts the treatment. Usually chemotherapy is used and sometimes radiation is used as well. If these fail there are stem cell transplants and bone marrow transplants. I am not aware of the impact to the small intestine but lymphoma is not always fatal. I'm still alive. However, there is an increased risk of secondary cancer after the fact.
