My daughter was took into hospital 1 week ago after a massive seizure. A lesion was found straight away. She has received no treatment and has been told it may take another 2 weeks before she gets one they have also not been able to find previous PET scans to compare with new ones to determine if the primary lymphoma in her chest has returned. We hat can i do? Please 

  • Hi there and thanks for posting

    I am sorry to hear about your daughter's situation and appreciate what an anxious time this must be for you.

    It is worth calling up her doctor's secretary if you haven't already done so to ask them if there is any update and when your daughter is likely to get an appointment through.

    Do of course let the doctor know if there are any other changes in your daughter's condition.

    I hope you know more soon and that your daughter gets the treatment she needs.

    Take care

    Naomi
