Lymphoma Diagnosis [View all]
I currently have lymphoma.
I was first diagnosed in 1991. I had treatment.
The lymphoma returned in 2003. I had treatment.
The lymphoma returned in 2019.
Unfortunately, I had chemotherapy and radiation and treatment did not give me remission.
The doctor tried a different treatment in 2020 and it not give me remission.
So, the doctor is giving me actually two options.
Do nothing, and hope for the best.
Do treatment, CAR-T but I do not really have a dedicated caregiver to make CAR-T work.
During the last treatment, I was making progress between the 3rd and 4th cycle.
However, the doctors postponed the 6th cycle due to possible respiratory infection.
