A member asked:

How is non hodgkin lymphoma diagnosed? what symptoms would make you think somebody has it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Biopsy.: Nhl is usually diagnosed by obtaining a lymph node biopsy. There are no symptoms specific to nhl. However, people could have fever, weight loss, night sweats, itching, rash and enlarged lymph nodes; or they could have none of the above and present only with a enlarged lymph node.
