Third Remission of Lymphoma (Update)

[bmichaelh]

I got the results from my PET scan this week.
My previous PET scan was back in February

I have been in remission for 1 year 3 months.

I have been living with lymphoma for over 30+ years.

First remission was 13+ years; second remissions was 16+ years; this is my third remission.

I have NOT forgotten that (TFG) wanted to repeal the ACA and I would have lost my life time limit and pre-existing protections. Before this last remission, my physicians tried 4 different type of treatments and all failed to varying degrees. Unfortunately, when it returns, it gets more aggressive and previous treatments do not work anymore.

Currently, I am under maintenance treatments every 3 weeks.

Thank all for those at DU who have given me well wishes in the past.
