Hi, 

My name is Shenna and I was recently diagnosed with B cell lymphoma follicular and told to 'watch and wait' for symptoms. Recently my spleen has become more and more enlarged to the point of discomfort and possible danger as it is beginning to press on the intestines. Has anyone else had a similar experience? I'm wondering about surgery to remove the spleen?
