I’d like any and all advice, information and stories on diffuse large B cell lymphoma!
😇🙌🏻🙏🏻😊
June 2019 i was diagnosed with primary cns lymphoma.
This year in march i had an ovary removed. They found diffuse large b cell lymphoma. My oncologist wants to put me on the r-CHOP regimen with stem cell transplant to follow as maintainance therapy.
I didn't see it listed as one of the "lymphomas". I was diagnosed February 20, 2019. I had chemo and was told in October that I was in remission.
Your the same story as me I had NHL with Diffuse Large B Cell last year, today I am in remission since Oct 2023

Right now we are looking at biopsy. She has enlarged lumps on both sides of the neck, severe fatigue, and a persistent dry cough over ten days. The dr has prescribed antibiotics for now.
We knew that she had abnormal cells in a pap smear several years ago, but we did not pay enough attention to it.
I am just hoping to talk to other people going through this, and hope to avoid any potential mistakes.
You are being incredibly strong for both you and your wife. That is so not easy.
I initially had follicular lymphoma, but it transformed to DLBCL. Follicular lymphoma returned two years later after my treatment (R-EPOCH) and I was told then that it would be unlikely that DLBCL… read more
