When cancer’s found at an early stage, treatment is often easier and more likely to be successful. So finding cancer sooner rather than later can make a real difference.

Symptoms of cancer vary based on the type of cancer.  As cancer progressed to an advanced stage, common symptoms can include weight loss, fever and fatigue.  Look out for these:
