I have read some history posts here and on the internet about how having CA (including Lymphoma) increases the likelihood of getting other CAs. This is with or without getting chemo- or immuno- therapy txs. I know that after my dx, my mammogram came back abnormal with areas that needed to be biopsied and watched. There are more of those areas every 6-month check. My skin CA occurrences which started about 6 years prior to dx have ramped up this last year - with 4 new spots that needed to… read more

I have mentioned this to my oncologist and… read more

A story to share about itching:

I have read that this condition is rare but I have a biopsy for breast cancer coming up and I also have non hodgkin lymphoma. I am wondering if you can have both at the same time!

Yes. But mine was just a lymphoma node in my breast
I don’t know yet. But after my recent investigation it was very fast that they wanted to see me again. With my other cancer (brain tumour) I get to see my oncologist on the same day after the MRI. I… read more
