My father aged 71 diagnosed with Primary CNS Lymphoma in Dec 2024. Symptoms in Nov 2024 included vomiting's, loss of appetite and weight loss.
So far he has undergone 2 sessions of Chemo (MTR - Methotrexate, Rituximab & Temozolomide) in Bangalore, India. We have appointment for 10/1/25 for MRI scan to see how tumor responded to the treatment and any course correction needed.
His left hand is completely unresponsive but his left leg is slightly better. He is on liquid diet (RT Feed) and still has problem with speech and swallow.
Doctor has planned for 6 chemo sessions to start with.
Wanted to check with this group can his left hand and leg be normal again? Are there any other options for treatment prescribed?

I was diagnosed with primary CNS lymphoma in 2019 at age 58. I had 6 rounds of MRT chemo, then stem cell transplant. I had physical therapy on my left side, because when surgeon took biopsy he touched my brain. I had physical therapy for 2-3 months. Did you have a stroke? I am completely healed and cured! I pray the same for you!
