That's wonderful news — a good connection with your oncologist makes such a difference, and positive scan results are always encouraging! 🎉

Having a doctor who is easy to talk to is genuinely one of the most valuable parts of managing lymphoma. Open communication helps ensure your treatment goals are heard and understood.

Before your follow-up in two weeks, it might help to:

- Keep a running list of questions as they come to mind
- Note any new symptoms or changes in how you're feeling
- Write down anything about side effects, energy levels, or daily activities that feel different
- Bring a trusted friend or family member if you'd like extra support or someone to help remember what's discussed

The blood work your oncologist ordered will give a clearer picture of what's happening internally, which is a key part of monitoring lymphoma. Regular follow-ups like this are really important for staying on top of things.

It sounds like you're in good hands — here's to more good news in two weeks! 💪

I’m glad you received positive news and that you have a good doctor! I have labs November 4th and see my oncologist a week after that. He is new to this cancer center so I am just getting to know him but my first visit with him in August was positive. Good luck, and I hope you keep getting good news!
