Insert Happy Dance Here... ♥ ☺☺☺
Okay, I need for you guys to find some interesting "Happy Dances" for us to share :) . CT results were good - still NED (no evidence detected). John, my "blook word" was good for post chemo - some levels were low but the oncologist says I'm doing great. Thank you all for your good wishes and cyber hugs. I have no doubt…

CT Scan Today
This afternoon is CT Scan, port flush, blood work and visit with the oncologist. I'm so "excited". Actually, I experienced some anxiety and spent most of the night watching TV and surfing the net until I could finally sleep (yawn). I guess I wasn't so good at being positive but I'm okay now ☺. Hugs are welcome :) . Jim

back pain
Just wondering the symptoms people felt after a stem cell transplant? My dad had his and is home now, but he has a bad back ache and I just fear it is the cancer causing the pain. He won't get a pet scan for a month.

4/24/12: Diagnosed B-Cell NHL
I joined here earlier as I had a "tentative" diagnosis of maybe cancer but it turned out to be Sjogrens which is an autoimmune disease also. Weakened immune system. Well as of April 24, 2012 I am officially diagnosed with B-Cell Non-Hodgkins lymphoma. It was a bit of a fluke finding it as they did a CT on my lungs of which…

Recovering my immune system
Hi, I've been in remission from NHL since chemo and stem cell therapy in Jan 2000 and things have been going extremely well. Except for the fact that my immune system never completely recovered. So I'm posting here to see if anyone who has been through the same can help. Some of my immunoglobulins particularly IgG are…

Saying Hello
My fiancee was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma a few weeks ago, and had his first Chemo treatment yesterday. Since his diagnosis, he has been very withdrawn and quiet. He has also chosen not to tell anyone except his employer about his situation. I respect his decision, however I do need the support, and to learn how to…

Pleurisy from Lymphoma?
In February I was diagnosed with pleurisy. The doctor tried antibiotics but it didn't work. He finally tried prednisone and that stopped the pain. After a few weeks I stopped taking one day and the pain came back. I had my normal check-up ct-scan on Febuary 6th that said I was stable. Then another ct-scan on February 23 to…

result's
Hello friends, I have the good news bad news on my PET scan, the bad news is that my father had his follow up scan, and it came back positive. He has lung cancer again, I'm hoping that he can just go through chemo, I don't think he could handle another surgery. As far as mine goes, its all good except for that area in hip…

It has been years since last treatment
And every test I go to has come back clean. I had type II Hodgkin's Lymphoma and after 6 months of chemo, 1 month of radiation and 1 surgery, everything was gone except scar tissue. Except every day I think about having cancer again. I feel like every day I wake up I am going to feel another lump, or start to feel tired.…

Carol - Helpful info on Side Effects
Hi Carol, I thought it would be helpful to start a new thread for you. I read in your last post about you receiving your Neulasta injection, I believe today. This has the potential to cause some real bone pain, as it helps to grow new cells at a fast rate. Many Oncs just give you narcotics, which is fine but there is…

New here, B cell marginal zone lymphoma with ITP
Hello all. I'm new here. I was diagnosed on 4/13/12 (Friday the 13th!) with marginal zone B cell lymphoma and its sometime companion, immune thrombocytopenic purpura - mercifully known as ITP. ITP is an autoimmune disorder that also involves the B cells and causes the immune system to destroy platelets, which makes it more…
