Well only 24 hours to go to ‘til I get the results from all those tests and the CT scan. It is really playing on my mind now! I did not get a lot of sleep last night. I went for a walk in the early hours only to be approached by a Community Support Officer duo who interrogated me on my reasons for wondering around at 4am. Then they suggested that they should ensure that I got home safely. I am certain they really only wanted to check I lived where I said.
Any way the walk did not help that much but the interrogation took my mind off the results problem for a while. So there inquisitiveness did some good. I suppose I should be glad that they were on the job.
I have my list of questions ready for the “Quack” hope the answers I get are the ones that I am looking for.
Do any of you out there know what treatment is normally given to patents with Lymphoma Hodgkin when lumps, cysts etc., have not been detected by external examination? I don’t know if the scan has detected any yet or even where else in the body they can be found. Can anyone help?

ive just seen ur blogs
my son had hodgkins 10years ago had some chemo some radio made a full recovery
(hes got testicular cancer now !!! BUT please dont panic its not related just his bad luck!)
with hodgkins he had a lump in his neck -from that they did a biopsy and removed the tumour
he had a other affected lymph nodes in the same area (sorry i dont know how many)
but he was told at the time - if your going to get cancer this is the best to get
-meaning treatable/successful etc.etc......hey they were right!
hope ive put your mind at rest a wee bit
also medicine has come such a long way in the past 10yrs
my son was ill with chemo 10yrs ago this time around and hes had a lot more this time!
its been a doddle for him! .... he couldnt believe how well hes felt!
he did make himself eat tho ...when sometimes he felt a little sick
so make sure you are well stocked up on your fav foods n beverages
Thanks for your support. It certainly helped. Off to the hospital in 20 mins or so to find out what is what. Got a list of questions printed out for the Quack to answer. Will update everyone later.
