Lymphoma

What if I get severely sick again after my next chemo treatment?

I just got out of the hospital. Saturday, I started a fever of 101.8 the fever continued to climb. I was struggling to breathe, my body aches were so severe it was hard to move. It had elevated liver enzymes and red and white cells were nearly nonexistent. I am so scared. What if it happens again after my next chemotherapy? I have muscle fatigue too. I am tired of being grown up.

How did you cope with lymphoma and loss during treatment?

Hello everyone, My name is Michael and I have been there, did that, and got the t-shirt. It is a cloudy time but please hang in there. Since my time I now have three girls that pamper their father to much. Together we will get through your tough days. In a nut shell I had non- Hodgkins Lymphoma, I was twenty seven, my first child was on the way, she died of SIDS as I was going through chemo. That was not a good year at all. I will answer every question you may have so please stop wondering and let the questions fly or just get it off your mind/chest! I am now a father of three girls in their twenties and am a RN now. Please feel free to ask/say anything, I won’t be hurt. You are now in a group of help and the best is to let it out as you feel! Mike
