Jo4,
Good luck on his labs. Kelly

Do LDH test again, and it will give you an idea. If it shows an increasing trend, then you probably need to worry. If LDH level is stable or reducing, then I don't think its a bad news.

Hello Jo4, my husband's LDH is currently 374...I visited the doctor, and he said if there is no continuous increase in LDH then there is no need to worry. However, I am also a bit worried. You need to check other symptoms as well. LDH can elevate due to other reasons as well. Please let me know what your doctor says.

Jo4,
Hi ! I have/had treatments of RCHOP chemo and have/had DLBCL stage IV. I too watch my blood work closely. My LDH went down after treatments. It's stayed in a normal range. I guess it depends on the increase. For example, mine stays in the normal range but 2 times ago it was 163 and a week ago it was 203. When I was diagnosed it was 693. If you have any question I would call and talk to the nurse. Kelly

I’m sure the oncologist will check that next month’s visit. Waiting is hard…
