Hi I have just been diagnosed with High grade anaplastic large T- cell non Hodgkin Lymphoma stage 3B. After knowing I had a cancer for nearly 2 months, today they finally came up a name, and what a long one it is. I start CHOP chemo on Tuesday and after suffering from intermitent extreme pain in my groin I am really pleased I can now start on the road to recovery. Because of the pain they gave me Tramadol which has really made me constipated. Today they have given me Lactulose and Senna as they say the chemo will make me even more so. Hope it clears up by Tuesday. Hope to going for a slap up meal at the weekend and maybe a few pints as well. Here's to the future and beating this.
