Hey guys, I've been in a bad way lately. I've had urinary problems on and off for years usually with burning and frequency, but one morning I woke up about a month ago with quite a bit of rust colored blood in my urine, moderate lower back pain and pain in my sides.. this lasted for 3 days. Then for about 3 weeks I felt pretty good with just some occasional lower back pain, pain in my sides but only when i first woke up and according to my doctor I have constant traces of blood in my urine. Then after that I had another attack just like the one from 3 weeks earilier with rust colored blood in my urine and the moderate pain. There is no infection. I 've seen a few docs about this but they all kind of laugh off the thought of cancer and they say im too young for kidney or bladder cancer..im 24 years old. What does this sound like to you guys? Can cancer symptoms be really bad for a week and then get better and then come back a few weeks later like that or are they usually constant? thnks

My husband has been sick, on and off for the last 13 years or so. He has been to Dr. after Dr. They do blood tests (Normal), bone scans (Normal), x-rays (Normal), biopsy on node (large but normal). He is still sick and noting is coming up. This Dr. is a cancer Dr. and he decided to take a sample of his bone marrow and a piece of bone. The symptoms that he has all match up with Lymphoma. Dones anyone know of anything else like this. We are at a loss and so are the Dr.s. They said that if it comes back as no cancer, they don't know what to do and we are back to square one again.
