I was diagnosed with Hodgkin Lymphoma in 2000. One of the symptoms I had was congestion and vomiting from it. Well it's back, clear phlegm, caughing, vomiting, unable to go from an upright position to laying down position since it feels like the crap in my chest is moving around. I've had a PET scan done this summer which turned out "clean" .

My question is what else can this be? I've been dealing with this condition my whole life. Hell for years family and friends called me "The Puker" since I could get sick at the drop of a hat.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Joe

Sadly Joe, there isn't much we can tell you here that you've not been told previously. This is something I think you need to see a doctor for. Being clean in the summer, especially with a previous diagnosis for cancer, doesn't mean that you won't have a relapse in the new year. I think more testing is needed to figure out if this is a symptom of relapse or if it is a condition that was cause by the HL.

Good luck.
