Good news from consultant as the pets scan shows only one lymphoma in me! Albeit still the 11cm mass - looks like I'm pregnant in the scan - such a large mass
He went through how such a lymphoma is categorised given biopsy my age Health etc and came in at under 2 which is positive - he still has some concerns it's a double hit lymphoma which is a nastier version
We discussed first chemo session this Tuesday and the possible side effects
Wife with me was great in asking all the questions- we must buy a thermometer to check infection as apparently as the lymphoma melts it might expose a weakened bowel wall and possible peritonitis- not a good thought
Roll on Tuesday
