Hi Matthi A D and a warm welcome to this corner of the Community and good to see you are through your treatment - I am Mike and I help out around our various Lymphoma groups.
I was diagnosed way back in 1999 with a rare, incurable but treatable type of Low Grade - NHL Stage 4a so I do appreciate the challenges of this journey rather well.
What exact type of the many NHLs do you have?...... this information will help folks connect better.
Good to see that you have put some information in your profile - these profiles are very helpful as lots of folks join the community but never post so being able to read members stories is a great support.
Always around to help more or just to chat
