About Me

Bio

I have been diagnosed with non - Hogkins Lymphoma about 1.5 years ago. We confirmed with a bone marrow byopsy. There has not been any treatment to date, only blood work every 3-months. I always feel very tired, fatiged and I sweat alot. I am 48 years old and own a very small airconditioning company and at the beginning of all of this I had health insurance but due to very slow pay by one of our customers on a large job, there was not any money to pay the health insurance premium so they canceled. Now I have no insurance for more than a year and must close the business due to no help with anyone. I feel that there should be some sort of treatment going on but due to no finances avaiable I feel my Cancer doctor has his hands tied with his accounting department. Ive worked 30 years very hard. Ive gone into my employers (when not self employed)so sick with the flue or what ever just because I did not want to let people down and now I look for help and I get nothing. My white blood count is at 57,000. Shouldnt I be getting treatment?
