Diane, sorry to read of your dx. Although you didn't indicate what stage you're in, a grade 1 FL is categorized as extremely indolent, or very slow-growing. Treatments vary according to the individual, but your oncologist could suggest anything from doing nothing at all ('watch and wait') through radiotherapy, immunotherapy, even (though very unlikely) some conventional chemotherapy. There are a number of people with FL at the NHL page for this site's sister site, Supportgroups.com; you can read more about their experiences there as well as ask more questions.
