Hi, I have just had a scan for suspected early relapse of high grade non-hodgkins lymphoma. in sternum(transformed from low-grade treated with radiotherapy March last year) finished R-CHOP chemo in December, get results on Tuesday.
I previously had radiotherapy 2020 (tonsils) and 2922 (throat)
Has anyone any idea of possible treatments if this is confirmed? I am 78 and do not want more treatment if only going to give me short time. Would rather have quality than quantity. Struggled with R -CHOP, only just getting over effects 9 months later.
Thanks
