There are a lot of symptoms similar to flu and viruses, such as: fever, chills, pain, dizziness, fatigue and weight loss. Less common symptoms are swollen glands or lymph nodes in the neck and armpits. Also, bruising very easily, severe nosebleeds or severe bleeding from the rectum. If someone has these symptoms or is worried, they should see a doctor and request a blood test.
