Relapse
![Max Former Hodgkins Stage 3](https://us.v-cdn.net/6035652/uploads/userpics/472T9CP8CH8E/n0JF3DXD467VC.jpg)
Hi friends. A very brief note: I have relapsed on my Lymphoma. Just thought I'd mention.
I won't write more about it here, but if you have some interest, you can follow my thread " Round III " at the lymphoma Board.

Another chapter in your life
Sorry to hear about the relapse. Never thought that a lymph node could get that big (5x2.5cm). I hope the removal has been successful and you recover the soonest.
Best wishes for good news on Tuesday.

Plain of existence
Well, we face so many issues on this plain of existence. I will say this, your approach and attitude is a beacon for me and I am sure for many others. As we continue to face the "Emperor of of all Maladies", it always has surprises for us. So keep up the fight. Wish you a speedy recovery.

Nine days after biopsy removal, still no word. The pathology group claims "most results within 24 to 48 hours." My onc did say that she called the pathology office and they thought it necessary to send off my samples to another facility for second opinion. Silly me, always being the exception.
I might use this as a teaching moment: The W.H.O. recognizes five forms of Hodgkin's lymphoma, and over fifty types of non-HL. They all vary in cell types, and drugs that work for one are often useless against other strains. Many hematologst spend an entire career with out ever seeing many of these disease subtypes. It is a challanging line of work.

Finally got my biopsy results yesterday. The diagnosis is PTGC. This is usually benign, and is benign in my particular case. Surgeon said the node he removed was tennis-ball sized.
I give thanks,

Cleve, at your recommendation, I broke out the good stuff: Milwaukee's Best Lite, $9.00 on sale for a 15 pack.

Smashing news
In terms of cancer, I have been around it, beside it and under it, but never above it. However, I think that you are above it all. Congratulations.
