Cutaneous B-Cell Lymphoma: Anyone else have this type of cancer?
Blood Cancers & Disorders | Last Active: May 3, 2025 | Replies (25)Comment receiving replies
Hello, I was just diagnosed with Cutaneous B-cell Lymphoma and wondering if anyone else has this and could share insights into what to expect. Only symptom I’ve had has been some bumps on skin. When biopsied they came back with this diagnosis. One on upper arm and one on lower back.

Hi @koala6cancer. Just popping in to add my welcome along with @gingerw to Mayo Connect. We have several members in the forum who have also been diagnosied with Cutaneous B- Cell lymphoma.
There are different forms of this type of lymphoma so treatments can vary from person to person as the need arises. Members are always willing to share their experiences and treatments. It can be so helpful to be able to talk with others who have a similar diagnosis. In my quick search of the conversations regarding CBCL, here are the results to the various disucssion. Please feel free to pop into any conversation and ask your questions.

What has your doctor discussed with you? Was the biopsy done at your dermatologist office? Have you been referred to an oncologist?

@koala6cancer Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. Any new diagnosis can certainly leave us scrabbling for answers and support.
May I suggest you go to the "blood cancers & disorders" support group. In the search bar there, type in B Cell lymphoma and hit the magnifying glass. It will then list discussions and comments. Choose the discussions tab and you can see different things already in progress.
