    Details?

    Hi Parker,

    Sorry to read your news. Lymphoma - IF it indeed turns out to be lymphoma - is often very treatable with excellent results, so do not let fear take control while waiting for an actual diagnosis.

    You do not give much detail as to what prompted your PCP to order that initial CT... If you care to share your history with us, we may be able to help you anticipate the next few days and weeks, and alleviate your fear.

    Kind regards,

    PBL
