My sister had a biopsy off her right arm and this was the diagnosis?
The doctor checked all her lymph nodes and found they were okay.
He is referring her to an oncology doctor. Does anyone know what type of treatment for this. Many thanks!

Hello @somde I think your questions will be better answered in the Cancer Support group. I will ask a moderator to move your question so you can meet others and participate in the discussions

Welcome @somde. As @becbuddy suggested, I have moved your post about treatments for cutaneous T-cell lymphoma to this exisiting discussion in the Blood Cancers support group:
- Anyone Have Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma?
https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/cutaneous-t-cell-lymphoma/
I did this so you can read previous posts and connect easily with other members like @shari715 @madisong @cindylb @dee081772 @grandpabob and others.

Somde, luckily there are many treatments are available for people with cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. Which treatments are best for your sister will depend on her particular situation, including the extent or stage of the lymphoma. Most people receive a combination of treatments for cutaneous T-cell lymphoma.

It is hopeful that the cancer was caught early since it was not detected in the lymph nodes. When does your sister see the oncologist to learn more? How are you doing?
