What is one of the symptoms of Non-Hodgkin lymphoma that can affect sleep?

Night sweats are a well-documented symptom associated with Non-Hodgkin lymphoma and can significantly affect sleep quality. Patients experiencing night sweats may find their sleep interrupted due to excessive sweating, leading to discomfort and the need to change bedding or clothing. This symptom arises from the body’s response to the lymphoma, which can cause fluctuations in temperature regulation during sleep. Additionally, the physical discomfort and anxiety surrounding the condition may further disrupt a patient's ability to obtain a restful night’s sleep.

In contrast, while frequent urination, loss of appetite, and chronic headaches can be distressing symptoms of various health issues, they do not directly impact sleep as profoundly as night sweats typically do in the context of Non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
