【施靜茹】淋巴癌早期症狀有時和流行性感冒、傷寒很像,癌症希望協會提醒民眾,發現「燒、腫、癢、汗、咳、瘦」六大症狀別輕忽,以免延誤就醫。
從美國到台灣學中文的田亮,後來在台結婚生根,他太太玉華兩年多前,常覺得頭皮發癢,在鼠蹊部的地方,也摸到怪怪的腫塊,拖了好久,太太才在他催促下去醫院檢查,如果得到的消息竟是「罹患淋巴癌第四期,必須立即做化學治療。」
36歲的文峰,去年底體重暴瘦13公斤,從來沒住過院、沒開過刀的他,去年11月也在病房裡,從醫師口中得知罹患淋巴癌第三期,令他詫異為何這個癌症找上他。
淋巴癌也被視為沉默的癌症,台北醫學大學附設醫院血液腫瘤科謝政毅說,在門診中,常聽到淋巴癌病患都會問:「怎麼會?不就是感冒嗎?不是運動受傷嗎?怎麼會是淋巴癌?」患者對淋巴癌瞭解太少,不知道它會以不同的型態與症狀出現。他表示,淋巴結像網狀一樣遍布全身,一般只在頸部、腋下、鼠蹊部等處較易摸到,淋巴結裡布滿淋巴細胞,功能在於過濾並吞噬外來入侵的細菌或病毒,另外,也製造淋巴球,淋巴球有如人體的巡防艦隊,幫助對抗感染和消滅身上的異常細胞。
淋巴癌者及早發現,及早接受正規治療,存活率可達七成。
