My Experience with Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma Treatment

Hang in there Connie Had my second treatment 12 days ago feeling ok First treatment went to hospital after 10 days…..maybe our bodies adjust ?

Remember to rest when your body is tired and take advantage of feeling better without overdoing it!  After my 6 days of chemo #1, my first week was worse, then my second week was much better!!! Then we did it all over again for six more days of chemo x 5 more hospital stays. It was a mindset, and I was surrounded by the best nurses and doctors;forever grateful !

Prayers, Connie!!! 🙏🥰

Thanks, Tim, I will!! Glad the 2nd one maybe better. So glad your feeling better.

You're all in my prayers ❤️

Are you taking iv chemo or oral meds....

I’m taking R CHOP infusion 6 times total every three weeks

I have a PET scan tomorrow that I should have had over a year ago, non-hodgkins lymphoma and in my bone marrow and lymph nodes in my lungs, doctor says they give you pills for non-hodgkins and I thought that sounded strange, did you ever take pills?

After my first chemo( 6 total, 3 weeks apart) Ii was hospitalized fot 7 days. My next dosage was cut by 25% and I handelate much better. Still having some mild recovery side effects.

I’m 2 rounds of r chop in next one is next Tuesday. Spent two days in hospital after first round second not as bad so far. 6 rounds chemo total is my plan.

Sending good vibes and prayers on your chemotherapy…

Lori, I had stage 4 N-H large B cell lymphoma. Mostly in my stomach & surrounding areas. Thankfully, not in my bone marrow. I had 6 rounds of chemo. They never mentioned taking pills. In remission now. Good luck. 🙏🏻
