Recently has a CT scan for my MCL. I have been on a trial program for 1 1/2 years which is working well so far. The CT scan said scattered hypodensities on the liver. Dr. says it's nothing, but it's been bothering me. Anyone else have this?
Thank you for your advice Rachael, I think I will get in touch with him. I hope your spot turned out negative and you are doing well and will continue to do so. Peace and blessings.

Read the book “Winning the War on Cancer”. The supplements can be complementary to traditional medical treatment. After the first two RCHOPS my husband needed a boost to his white blood cells, which… read more
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 been thinking about this issue. I finished R-CHOP for follicular lymphoma in January 2023. Since then I have had squamous cell carcinoma on my scalp and am currently scheduling a biopsy for… read more

Thanks for sharing your journey and I hope you will feel better soon.
I've never been a sick person . I just had a great immune system and didn't catch all the viruses that went around. Now I'm sitting here about to be discharged from the hospital for the second time after being admitted for neutropenia and fever. I'm weak. I must look awful because the doctors are asking if I need any equipment or services I was still trying to work full time but my job got nasty about me missing time and it's either disability or get fired. I just don't know how to be a sick… read more
Thank you for sharing and expressing your vulnerability. I think you should consider your situation as two separate problems. Instead of wondering how to be ill, and work, first work out how you cope… read more

I have been following IWMF.com since I was first diagnosed. The information they provide is so valuable to understanding WM. Based on this I am traveled to the Dana Farber in Boston to meet with a WM… read more
Before I started the radiation therapy, the specialist said: “this/I will cure you”(coincidently his last name in French and English is HERO)! I thought: “nice of him to think so. I think this guy takes his last name a little too seriously.” Was I being too cynical? Yes, because I prefer to face reality with facts in order to be able to make relevant decisions and plans. Fact is, in my case at least, radiation would help “clear” the area to be treated temporarily. Radiation, as far as I know, is… read more
Exactly I'm writing every thing down
I'm getting ready to start 4-6 cycles of R-CHOP for DLBCL after we finished all the scans and tests this week. Of all the medical possibilities, chemo is the one I have feared the most over my lifetime, and here we gooo!
Honestly I didn’t deprive myself. I was told if I loose 10% of my weight chemo will be stopped. One thing for sure you need to consistently be hydrated
The morning before i would drink plenty of… read more
