What Causes Joint Pain And Rapid Weight Gain?
I have had abnormal lymph blood test for several months. I have joint pain. Last blood test showed abnormal sodium. I have had a rapid weight gain of 25 plus pounds in 3 month period despite the fact that eating habits are relatively the same. My job has required more physical activity, but I still have had significant weight gain. Can you have weight gain with cancer?

No this is not the cancer, because this other way round in the malignancy patients looses the weight, here in your case the weight gain could be genetic, you have not mentioned your age and gender else I would have think in better way for the reason of weight gain, still this is not the cancer, hope this information would clear the doubt, take care.
