We just found out in the beginning of April that my cancer, follicular lymphoma, has returned. I am depressed and at the same time, not very surprised. We knew going in that the average time for reoccurance is 5 to 7 years. I had my last chemo treatment 4 years ago. Does anybody know anything about the 2nd time? I don't go back to the doctor until July, so I am in a holding pattern and the not knowing is worse than chemo. I cannot take retuxin, I am HIGHLY alleric to it, so who knows what will happen next. Thanks for listening!

Can they desesnitise you to the retuxin? I am allergic to carboplatin but with desens I can still receive it. If you need to know more just buzz me... :)
I don't know if I can be densen. from it. I do know i head toward antifolactic ( SP?) shock with it. I would like to know about the process though. Thank you so much for your kind offer.
