Hello, 

This is my first visit to the NHL group. After months of tests, scans & biopsies I was finally diagnosed with Stage 3 DLBCL on the 7th January. I had my first round of R-CHOP on the 14th. That went to plan & the following day I was fine.
Yesterday & today a different story. No energy, feel weak & wobbly and very tearful. I thought initially the treatment wasn’t supposed to cause any real problems ? but possibly harder to deal with as it progressed. I must admit I feel very worried, I have felt so bad over the last two days.
I’ve another 5 sessions over an 18 week period.  
Just wondering if anyone has any info or advice.

Many Thanks.

    I was diagnosed with Stage 4 DLCBL in January too. I was admitted to hospital after 1st round of r-chop with sepsis.

    After my 2nd cycle I caught Covid 19 and my chemo was stopped for 7 weeks (not good).  I have just had my 4th cycle and feel good.

    Just hang in there and things will improve and remain positive always.  Sleep if you are fatigued and most of all be kind to yourself.

    Take ca
