The enlargement of lymph nodes is usually a main symptom. However, there are many other warning signs to look out for. Weakness, shortness of breath, fever and night sweat are normally present at the beginning of Hodgkin's Lymphoma. Others like skin bleeding, joint and muscle pain, jaundice and the swelling of upper and lower extremities start showing at advanced stages.

You can either call the doctors office and schedule a consult with the doctor and they can explain it all to you as well as answer any questions you may have. Or you can do a web search and it will pull an entire list that you will be able to print and file away for future use.
