Unexplained Weight Loss
The cancer cell’s consumption of energy, combined with the energy the immune system uses to fight the cells, also causes unexpected and sudden weight loss. You can also lose weight due to blockages in the colon caused by cancer that change the way your digestive system works.
Weight loss can additionally worsen symptoms of fatigue. If you unintentionally lose 10 pounds or more within a 6 month period, report this to a doctor.
