Hi Classy11,

I hope that this post finds you well and and good health. After just battling stage 3 non-hodgkins lymphoma (8 rounds of R-CHOP)I have 2 remaining cancerous lymph nodes and I was being prepared for a stem cell transplant. Upon closer inspection of my case file, the patholgist at the transplant center is now thinking (or sees the potential) for evidence that indicates one of the 2 cancerous lymph nodes is hodgkins lymphoma.

Can you tell me what your course of treatment was?

Since the early 1970s, incidence rates for non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma have nearly doubled. Improved diagnosis has contributed greatly to the increase as doctors better understand cancer of lymphocytes and can distinguish it from other diseases.
