Looking for advice on MR-CHOP treatment for CNS lymphoma?
Community Member
4 days agoHi all. I was just diagnosed with Large B cell lymphoma with germinal center B cell immunophenotype. After a year and a half of searching for the cause of my head pain a doctor at University of Miami found an orbital tumor. A day later I was in surgery for a biopsy. Three weeks later diagnosed. The plan is to start me on treatment next week. My doctor wants to treat me for CNS lymphoma using MR-CHOP. I’ll need to be admitted for the treatment. Any words of advice from anyone who has gone through this?
