I was treated at MD Anderson for my Mantle Cell Lymohoma and they saved my life. I was misdiagnoses at my home in Mandeville, La. and went to see the doctor that was treating my brother. He retested me and we began a treatment plan that has kept me alive and well for years. I'll be 82 this July.

Hi @golfer0744 Welcome to Connect! Getting the right diagnosis is critical for receiving the proper treatment. You’re living proof of that! Sometimes we have to be our own advocates and I’m relieved you kept seeking answers by going to your brother’s doctor.

What was your treatment plan for Mantle Cell Lymphoma? If you don’t mind sharing, what was your brother being treated for? Did he also have lymphoma?
