I was diagnosed with ALCL positive four weeks ago and had my first session of CHOP last week. I have a further five rounds of chemo ahead at three week intervals and would like to hear from anyone who has had a similar diagnosis.
Hi and welcome to the Community. There are a few in the group with ALCL so let’s see if they are still looking in as once treatment is finished folks tend to move on.
You can of course put ALCL into the search tool near the top and see all their posts and hit reply and put a post to see if they are still active on the site.
CHOP is used widely and I hope you are doing well after your first treatment.
