Is anyone familiar with a condition of stomach distension or swelling caused by leaking of lymphatic fluid into tissue underneath the skin layer? This is suggestion from a GI doc at Cleveland Clinic. Anyone else have this? I have follicular NHL

I would also like to know more about this situation as I think I have this condition too. Preliminary diagnosis is follicular NHL.

I too have follicular lymphoma, one enlarged lymph node in the abdominal wall but no other symptoms. I have just completed my chemo and am discouraged that although I am in remission, I can find little information that will support the hope that I will remain in this state for long.
