How Best To Deal With The Anxiety Of An Upcoming PET Scan After Being In Remission?
A MyLymphomaTeam Member asked a question 💭

Been in remission since May and have been having stomach pain that was believed to be a hernia until ultrasound showed there wasn’t one. Now have to go back for another PET scan because of a swollen liver and spleen. I’m having severe anxiety over the whole situation. I don’t want to do this again.

Fatigue
A MyLymphomaTeam Member asked a question 💭

I’m on wait and watch for over a year. Over been through all the testing. I’m stage 4 because it’s 30 percent in my marrow. My dr says all number are ok and have not gotten worse.

Has Anyone Been Put On The Wait And See Program Without Being Given An Official Diagnosis?
A MyLymphomaTeam Member asked a question 💭

I have had swollen lymphnodes in my groin for about 15 months, my right armpit for about 4 months, and in my neck which the hema-oncologist discovered about almost 6 weeks ago. Night sweats have been occurring for about 15 months now, however they used to happen randomly here and there (few times a month) they are now every time I fall asleep. I now wake up 2-3 times a night to change because I am drenched and end up shivering for 30-40 min afterwards. I have had terrible joint/body pain for the… read more

Shingles Vaccine? Yay Or Nay?
A MyLymphomaTeam Member asked a question 💭

Any thoughts on whether those of us with lymphoma should get the shingles vaccine? My oncologist today told me I should get it. I've been pretty die-hard about not introducing toxins into my body....and I'm thinking that is another one. But he said getting shingles would really be hard on my body with the lymphoma.
