@pk33248 Hello Pradeep, oh my goodness, I’m really sorry to hear about your young patient who was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. It’s tragic that there won’t be any treatments because with it, this disease can be curable. But treatments need to start early in the cancer.

The two meds the doctors prescribed appear to be only pain relief and inflammation reducers. They will not do anything to treat the Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. I’m very sad to say, that without treatment, your young patient doesn’t have a very good outcome to the disease. Unfortunately, the cancer will continue to progress and the best you can do is to keep her comfortable.
This is just heartbreaking.
Are there no options for paying for treatments over a lengthy period of time?
