Symptom #1: Weight Loss
If you are rapidly losing weight for no apparent reason, then there may be something very wrong. There are a number of reasons why you would lose weight rapidly, and one of them is bone cancer. If you are shedding the pounds and you cannot explain why then you really should book an appointment with a doctor.
According to CancerCare, weight loss occurs secondary to the body producing chemicals that cause “weight loss, muscle loss, and a decrease in appetite.” Decrease in appetite can also be related to side effects of cancer treatment. Regardless of the suspected cause for unexplained weight loss, it is a very alarming symptom that deserves professional medical advice as soon as possible.
