I finished my TX for DLBCL with PCHOP Jan 2nd and will go in next week for my 3 mos scan. I’m feeling mostly good, just a question?. In the last month I have developed a swollen feeling knee joint and now a finger that seems to be acting like a trigger finger and is sore and the joint feels swollen. I am 64 and didn’t have these Symptoms before anybody else?

Joint swelling and similar symptoms can sometimes occur after cancer treatment, though experiences vary greatly from person to person. It's encouraging to hear that the treatment has concluded and the upcoming scan is approaching - these follow-up appointments are perfect opportunities to discuss any new symptoms with the medical team. Many community members find it helpful to share their post-treatment experiences, so others going through similar situations may chime in with their own insights.
