It is possible to find some types of cancer before any symptoms have developed, that is, while a person is still perfectly healthy and has noticed absolutely nothing wrong. This is discussed at the end of this chapter. However, most cases of cancer are diagnosed after one or more symptoms have developed. I described ni.mv of these early warning symptoms in the last chapter.
