Symptoms are placed into three separate categories,
namely: local, metastasis and systemic. Local symptoms are
the first to occur which manifest through unusual lumps
or tumor formation, hemorrhage, ulceration and pain. Metastasis
symptoms indicate that the abnormal cells have begun to
spread and affect nearby regions as presented by cough,
hemoptysis or coughing out blood, hepatomegaly or enlarged
liver, neurological symptoms, enlarged lymph nodes and bone
pain.
Systemic symptoms indicate that the cancer
has spread in most regions of the body affecting most major
organs and the system as a whole. Usual manifestations are
muscle wasting or cachexia, poor appetite, loss of weight,
night sweats or diaphoresis, anemia, thrombosis and hormonal
abnormalities. Other notable symptoms include blurring of
vision, fatigability, headaches, fever, nausea and vomiting.
