helwmlt, I know that some natural healers believe that lymphoma is caused by numerous bacteria and viruses in our body, but this has not been medicaly proven.

Have you had chemo, radiation or some kind of medical treatment which concentrated on the lymphoma itself? If not, I'd suggest that you get a second opinion. Best of luck, Kasia
