I'd imagine those people wouldn't have gone too long with just an ITP diagnosis. Lymphoma can have symptoms such as weight loss, fevers, loss of appetite, swollen lymph nodes, night sweats, etc.

Thanks, Joan! I was hoping someone would jump in. I still think it's rare considering the lack of articles linking the two and the fact that it's not a big part of this discussion board.

As for MDS, that is probably more common as it has been mentioned here. MDS is generally a disorder that affects individuals over 60. It is usually treatable.

Oh, I have a correction to make. I suggested submitting an article. Those can be submitted to the Platelet News, not the monthly e-News.
