Sorry lost all my comments so here we go again:
After 6 weeks of hospitalisation & tests and biopsy’s, I was on 1sr June diagnosed with Non Hodkinsons Lymphoma. Aggressive, stage 3 large tumours - 18 in all.
Now I have just started my 4th cycle of 6 three weekly chemotherapy. Very positive so far.
Pet scans used and after the 6 th cycle ends another Petscan to see if there are any active tumours left, if so they will use Radiotherapy to zap them.
Hope this helps.
Peter

This is turning out to be a wild summer for you, isn’t it, after your diagnosis of non Hodgkin’s lymphoma! It’s really encouraging that your treatments are working. I know from experience the chemo isn’t fun but it’s a means to get back to normal! So, 3 down, 3 to go! Do you feel pretty wiped out halfway through the cycle before you start the next round?
What were your symptoms that led to your diagnosis?
