i sent a reply in earlier on another thread on my CTCL treatment process. it went from a few small white dots on my thigh, to a palm-sized patch a few months into getting it checked by dermatologist. once a biopsy was made, the mycosis fungiodes diagnoses was confirmed. we treated for 6 weeks with Valchlor and then I started using Clobetasol 0.05% ointment and a home UV light on new and existing patch. Now the CTCL is in blood (12.5% cancerous T-cells) so we are using Targretin pills 300mg/day and bloodwork monthly.
@beeclee, I'm tagging you on this discussion so you can meet @dws1968 who was also diagnosed with Mycosis Fungoides.
You mentioned you will be getting light therapy. Are you referring to phototherapy?
