I was diagnosed with Non HODGKIN'S Mantel Cell Lymphoma stage 3 on Friday, October 12. I am waiting for a Bone Marrow Biopsy,to determine weather it is stage 4. I am a lung cancer savior of 5 years. I do not know what to expect and I am scared. I am 70 years old. I would like some information from other mantel cell patients. I wish you all the best with great results with all of your treatments.

    Hello,

    How wonderful to read you are a survivor of lung cancer. I am also so sorry you have to be on this site.

    I was not dx with Mantel Cell Lymphoma. You will certainly receive answers from others with the same dx. I was dx with NHL on Sept 2009. I am currently in remission.

    What I can tell you, the feeling I had when dx was the most horrible and unexpected. I was More than depressed and scared. As you are now. As each day went by, and I received more and more information, the depression subsided. Lymphoma is treatable.

    I wish you hope, blessings and prayers. Maggie
