Hi I have mantle cel lymphoma 

since diagnosis  I have developed thyroid issues 

diverticulitis liver issues which I’m on steroids 

my kidneys show up every now and then with my bloods

and  pains in my hands 

I’m on watch and wait so no treatment 

but I was wondering if there’s a connection… my consultant says no but for me it’s all too coincidental 

  • Hello and thank you for your post.

    I cannot find a link between the conditions you have developed and Mantle cell lymphoma. 

    You have also asked your consultant who is a specialist in lymphoma, so they would also know if there was a link.

    I hope this has been of some help to you. You may find it helpful to talk things through with one of the nurses on our helpline.  The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.

    Take care,

    Caroline
